Collecting Diapers for the Crib Club
by Beth on Oct.27, 2009, under Events, Nonprofits
Wild Hare Décor will be
collecting diapers throughout the month of November to support the Christ Child Society’s “Crib Club.” We will honor each donation by placing a diaper pin with the person’s name attached on the store’s Christmas tree.
Crib Club at the Women’s Care Center: The two locations of the Women’s Care Centers assist new and expectant mothers by offering parenting classes, counseling and encouraging good health and self-sufficiency. Through their programs, coupons are earned to be used in the Crib Club which is stocked with new baby clothes, baby care items and diapers. The Christ Child Society provides and organizes these items and staffs the two Crib Club sites.

Blackhawk Christian School – Chili Dinner
by Beth on Oct.26, 2009, under Nonprofits
On November 14th, the Blackhawk Christian School is hosting a chili dinner which includes both a silent and live auction event. The money raised will allow them to continue to provide a quality education and a Biblical foundation. BCS has had the privilege to give over $100,000 in tuition assistance this school year. The families benefiting from this assistance value the character development and Christian principles that BCS instills in their students.
We hope you will consider attending this event and you may even consider bidding on the auction item we provided. Thanks Blackhawk Christian for including us.
