Fundraising:
Fundraising is also important to cover our operational costs. Each family who joins will have a yearly fundraising goal of $550. We have many fundraisers that you can participate in to meet your goal, including an auction, restaurant nights, rewards programs at participating organizations, and other fundraisers such as a pie and wreath sale. We're always looking for new fundraising opportunities that are a match for our communities values, so we welcome your ideas.
