Family & Children First

I recently joined the board of directors of Family & Children First ("FCF"). This organization provides counseling and crisis management services to families with children, most of whom are poor. They deal with some of the most difficult situations families face, with clientele in a 14 county service region (KY and IN).

I wanted you to be aware of some upcoming events that might fit into your "networking" plans.

• Purse Strings. Rodes for Her is sponsoring "Purse Strings" on October 25, 2007 from 6:00 to 9:00 pm at their store. The event is no charge. They raise money by auctioning off purses. See details here. All proceeds benefit FCF.
  

• Women's Resource Market. Another event directly primarily at women is the Women's Resource Market from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm on November 3, 2007 at the Hyatt Place on Hurstbourne Lane. Tickets are $10. See details here. Again, all proceeds benefit FCF.
  

• Family Reunion Breakfast. Finally, FCF is having their Family Reunion Breakfast on November 16, 2007 from 8:00 to 9:00 am at The Olmsted. There is no charge. If you would like to go and sit at my table, please let me know.

Additional details regarding FCF are on their website, here.
