We have many local charity events and organizations that need our help this holiday season. Some of these groups benefit our friends, neighbors, and colleagues, and others are organizations that make up the fabric of our community and make SoWal the truly special place that is our home.

Please consider a donation of any amount of money and/or your time, to local groups that provide assistance to members of our community (like Caring and Sharing), to groups that protect the beauty of our area (like the SWCC), and to groups that provide programs that you enjoy and that make our community strong (The Seaside Rep).

This weekend, there are 3 events happening that support groups which are amazing community treasures:

The 30A Radiothon starts tomorrow:

Hey SoWallers- Please post information on other local groups that need donations this holiday season!
 
I listened to 30A radio today for an extended period today and boy, what a treasure. It made me chuckle and smile. :wub:
 
Thanks to all the donors, organizers, workers, and supporters of this past weekend's events! There was so much going on, but our little community really "showed up" and made some cool things happen!

Alaqua had an open house yesterday- I hope it went well, and when y'all make your Walmart runs (or Sam's, or wherever you stock your supplies) - remember that Alaqua always needs everything from paper towels to detergent to dog food. Pick up an extra something for them if you can.

Next Sunday (Dec. 14th) is the Elf Ride :

Y'all check your calendars and let us know what else is going on this week!
 
Caring and Sharing needs all the help they can get this year. Cafe 30-A has cancelled their fund raiser this year, which will really leave C&S in a bind for Christmas giving.
 
Can I throw in a recommendation for Walton County Council on Aging? Easy to think of children's needs for Christmas, but there are a lot of low income seniors in the panhandle living in places that would make you weep.
 
Caring and Sharing, check.
Seaside Rep, check.
Elf Ride, check.

Although it's a lot more than last year it feels really good. :wub:
