Fund Raisers
Myra,
I learned about your organization on Monday from Mercer colleagues, Robin Woodard (Project Linus group member) and Dolly Ashley (MERC employee). I was very touched by the work that you do. My mother teaches crafting classes at Hobby Lobby – see the copied email below – and she has decided to donate the proceeds from her two November 26th classes to charity/non-profit organizations. We talked about it and two groups really spoke to her, Hearts to Heroes and Toys for Tots. We have posted the classes on her website and her Facebook page. Enrollment will directly affect the amount of the donation we can give, but we have our fingers crossed and our prayers said for a good turnout. Feel free to post this information on your website as we want to reach as many as possible for these wonderful causes!
If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please feel free to contact me at the email address below or via the website or Facebook page.
Thanks,
Kimberly
