Fundraising
Our previous Rada fundraiser raised over $400 and we are excited to partner with them again this year for a new fundraiser. We appreciate all the help we get from our families and extended families to make these fundraisers successful. Please let us know if you want to do a fundraiser and we will help in any way we can!
We received a grant from Geisinger in the past and have asked again this year now that we have things up and running again. If you know of any sponsors that would like to help local non profits, please send them our way!
We have limited our fundraising the past two years due to the economy and not being able to hold events. We survive on donations to keep the website up and to provide support for our families in need. Please consider a donation to help us succeed!
