Save the Date to Help Save Christmas

CHS shaped cookies, yes there will be cookies

This is an important Save the Date post.  I say important because it is about an important cause and it is a fun event!

2013 Cookies and Cards Fundraiser
Wednesday December 4, 2013
6-8pm
Houghs in Greenfield
RSVP on Facebook  

For the past 2 years, I’ve joined a great crew of Pittsburgh bloggers to help the Pittsburgh Nonprofit Community Human Services raise funds to provide holiday gifts and cheer for some of our fellow Pittsburgh residents who really wouldn’t have much during the holiday season.

2012 – A Huge Success

Last year, we set a lofty goal of raising $5000 in donations and gift cards to help CHS provide a little something for the folks they work with.  Thanks to the generous donations and kind hearts of Pittsburghers – we raised $8500 – which allowed CHS to provide something for over 400 people.

2013 – We need your help!

I’m setting the goal for 2013 at $10,000 and I’m going to need your help to get there.

I’m on my way to the planning meeting for the December event this evening and I am going to have an online fundraising page to share with you shortly.  You can read more about why I’ve been supportive of CHS here.

I hope that you will plan to attend this fun event – who doesn’t like to get together and eat holiday cookies – and that you will bring your friends along too.

If you would like to help in planning and promoting the December 4 event – we are always looking for help and donation of raffle prizes.  Please drop me an email (lindsay – @Iheartpgh.com) and I’ll keep you in the loop.
