Thanksgiving Food Drive
This "Year we Sponsored (3) Families this year at "Thanksgiving" time in 2009!!
This event was "Hosted" by Group Organizers David Guiets &
Carroll-Lynn(Assistant Group Organizer)
(High Intensity Productions)
*This event was a great success the year before and with your help we made it even a Bigger success this season than the year before in 2008.
As was the case last year, many of us know the economy has not been doing so good lately not to say there wasn't already family's in need of help, but now with the situation were facing there are many more. I think it would be a great idea to use our large member base to once again make a difference in our community this holiday.
We asked all our members to help out in any way possible as together we can can make a difference.
I'm proposing that we each donate at least $10 in food or cash donations or a $10 gift card for "Publix, Winn Dixie, Walmart", which we can then hand over to a local charity to give to families in need.
This year, like last, were going with the "Neighbors 4 Neighbors" charity which found us a family to personally deliver the items to.
Our goal is to meet on Monday Nov. 24th at our "Home base"
(Starbucks in Hollywood) to collect the donations and deliver them on Weds the 25th. If anyone wants to help but can't make it to the event we can work something out just call me and let me know. If you want to come along on Weds to drop the donations off your more than welcome to and encouraged to do so.
Let's make a difference this year and change the holiday for a few families.
I ask that we try to give a minimum of $10 but any little bit helps and there is no maximum.
