Dear Friends,
We, here at St. Francois County Community Partnership, are now into our fifth month of SEASON OF HOPE 2024. And this month we are GIVING WITH A THANKFUL HEART! All monies collected go 100% toward Season of Hope and stay inside St. Francois County. We focus on children that will not otherwise receive a Christmas gift. The children are carefully selected by schoolteachers and counselors. Last year we saw an increase in need and are expecting to see another this season. If you are interested in participating in our Season of Hope 2024 there are multiple ways to give,
• Monetary Donations. Send cash or check donation. Involve everyone in your organization or business by creating an opportunity for them to contribute. You may make the donation in memory or honor of someone.
• Pay via credit or with debit card at sfccp.org/projects-6-1
•SFCCP is also raffling off a 36 Inch Blackstone Griddle kindly donated by Josh Browning, State Farm Agent and Gifford Lumber Company. Tickets are $5 per ticket or 6 tickets for $20.
