To celebrate Earth Day we've rejoined the Planet Green Recycle program. Not only does this help the environment by recycling old ink cartridges but it helps raise money for FPAC as well! Learn more about how you can fundraise from home!
Another way you can help fundraise through reduce- reuse- recycle, is to consign items with Mimi"s Consignment under the FPAC account. Once the item sells, the proceeds will go towards FPAC. Contact Mimi's to learn more about what items can be consigned 307-745-3676. Store hours are Wed- Sat 12-6pm.

Letter from Susie
I am so grateful for the opportunity to be a part of Family Promise and the Laramie community. I originally joined because I feel non-profits serve a vital purpose and I wanted to develop my project planning and development skill set. My time with Family Promise has taught me so many wonderful things and I've grown so much. My favorite experience with Family Promise has been putting together and establishing the Diaper & Hygiene Pantry. For my future plans, I'm going to be living in Laramie for awhile because I LOVE IT! And I plan on using the education award (part of the Americorps benefits) to work on my Masters degree. I plan to continue working in the nonprofit sector, in whatever form that may take.
Again, thank you all for such a great opportunity and experience!
