Many SoWal Giving Opportunities - Every Dollar and Effort Counts!

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.

I know this sounds nuts, but after reading the article there was a quote that there was $14k raised last year. Isnt that all the more reason to have it? $14k is a lot to a charity. And if times are tougher, they it all the more not less.
So maybe its not a ball, maybe something else could take its place. Probably too late to try now but sure would have been nice to give something a college try ....

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.

Where do we find info on these people? Are you involved in any way?

I'm not involved with Walton County Council on Aging, but I've worked for similar programs in the area. Contact info is here:

Publix has its "holiday charity bags" available for purchase and Caring and Sharing is also collecting food to distribute for holiday dinners.

If you shop at the Watercolor Publix, you can buy non-perishables and drop them right next door at the UPS store, as they are a collection point for Caring and Sharing.
