Sarchix Finds

I just got back from our annual Brunch with Santa with the Junior Women’s Club.  I’m exhausted but I know we made a ton of money.  We were turning folks away at the door for the first seating  and the second seating was almost to capacity.

Almost all the food was donated from either the members or local stores – the Mac and Cheese from the Pop Shop was YUM!  We worked hard and I think it all worked out well.

The money raised is going to the FAFS (Foster and Adoptive Family Services) to help the kids “in the system” where the state can not.  See earlier post for more info about FAFS.

We were really lucky to get the local High School’s National Honor Society kids to come and help out (for extra credit at school).  They were really helpful and the day would have been very hard with out them.

So now I’m off to heat up some of the left overs from the Brunch for dinner because reheating hot dogs is about all I have the energy to make tonight.

As part of the whole concept of good find and doing good, I was introduced to this charity though a club I am in, the Junior Woman’s Club. (Trust me, you’ll hear more about this later.)

The Foster and Adoptive Family Services is a great origination that helps out children in foster care or adoptive family in New Jersey.

There are many ways to help out this week’s featured charity and not just with money.  Check them out to see how you can help these children who are very much in need of help.  Even the simplest things could help these children in crisis and the adults who care for them.

Foster and Adoptive Family Services is a 501(c)3 Non-Profit Organization where 85% of all contributions go directly to the fund.
