More parents are needed to drive youth to Highland Springs for caroling in their personal vehicles.
Eat at Palio's Pizza Cafe Richardson (1469 W Campbell Rd, Richardson, TX 75080) on Sunday between 11 am and 8 pm! A portion of the day's sales will be donated to help defray the cost of youth summer mission trips. Customers should tell the cashier they are there for the "FUMCR Youth fundraiser."
