6 Days Away: Help Us Help More Children!
|
|
This November 28th, join the movement and give - whether it's some of your time, a donation, gift or the power of your voice to make the difference in the life of a child.
It's a simple idea. We have Black Friday and Cyber Monday-why shouldn't we have one day
 a year dedicated to giving. Come together with your family, your neighborhood community, your company or organization, and share why you give.
You can print this poster and help us spread the word about how amazing our Guardian ad Litem volunteers are by telling your giving story and posting an #unselfie on Facebook. Don't forget to tag us in your photo or use the #Champion4theChild so we can help amplify the good.
children thank you for your continued support and generosity!

Did you miss the deadline for holiday nominations or have you received "late shelter" children who were not on the holiday list??
Please mark December 13th (for Pinellas) or December 16th (for Pasco) on your calendar for our Santa's Toy Workshop-where you can "shop" for your GAL kids!
Due to the generosity of donors and the volunteers who have been working very hard to secure gifts, we will have lots to choose from! So please come "shop" and help bring a little magic to the children for whom you advocate.
Please note, if you have received gifts for a child through the nomination process, that child is not eligible for gifts from the Toy Workshop. This is for children who have not received gifts from a specific donor only.
