Countdown to Kindness

It's that time of year again! Time for our annual Countdown to Kindness!

Here's how it works:

1. Help us spread the word by sharing this image on FB, blogs, twitter, instagram, etc...

2. For every $1,000 we raise in the month of December we will do one random act of kindness (RAK).

3. We'll take a photo of the RAK and share it on our social media pages.

4. Our goal? 20 RAKs by Christmas ($20,000)!

How to get involved?

1. Donate to help us get to our 20 RAKs

2. Donate $50 or more and we'll send you an ornament handmade by one of our kids or caregivers as a thank you. We have three options and you can choose which one you want!

                                                   

3. Donate in honor of someone else as a Christmas gift. We'll email the image of your choosing on Christmas morning to the person (email Megan at megan@abidefamilycenter.org to arrange this)

Thank you for supporting our educational needs!

We raised a total of $2,500 in our "Go Back to School, Give Back to Families" campaign. Thank you for playing a part in helping us provide for the educational needs of the caregivers and children at our center!

The funds raised have been directed toward building up the early childhood center with books, paying the salaries of our adult and child educators, providing for caregivers to attend the business class as well as providing for the small grants offered to an entire business class.

Your donations have helped caregivers and their children LEARN and GROW. We are grateful and they are grateful for your support.

With your support, we also got to do some fun activities with the kiddos in the early childhood center.

Thank you to Alisa Harder for your donation. She sent the kids on a play-dough-making adventure!

The kids had a blast and loved playing with their homemade play dough!

Thank you all who have and continue to support Abide financially. 

You help us keep children in families!
