Celebrate Youth

April showers bring May dollars. Or something like that.

I just received word that the Middletown Community Foundation Youth Advisory Council is awarding $4500 to the Kits for Kids Campaign! We've also been invited to attend the Council's annual celebration luncheon on May 12th, where we will receive our check. I hope it's a big giant novelty check. It's been one of my life dreams to accept one of those things!

Whatever the size of check, though, we'll take $4500 and run with it. This money will purchase 818 school supply kits for kids throughout the Middletown, Monroe, Madison, and Edgewood School Districts. This contribution also takes our county-wide campaign up to $33,484, which is more than 1/3 of our fund-raising goal. (And if I'm correct, we're about $2,000 away from breaking a campaign record.) Help us get there! Send in your donations today!
