Hi Friends! WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT! And we would like to raise your awareness of a VERY important cause. Ever heard of Back Back Buddies?
Our AWESOME employee Meg is running in a Back Pack Buddies charity race is THIS SATURDAY! Every donation, no matter how small, goes a long way for these kids. How does it work? Plastic grocery bags filled with nutritional, easy-to-prepare or ready-to-eat foods are delivered to the school each week. The school places these bags into the backpacks (also supplied by the schools, churches, and groups) and the children take them home on Friday afternoons, returning them to the school on Mondays. This is also done for holidays and extended breaks from school.
Meg participated in last year's Back Pack Buddies race in Severn, Maryland. Thanks to all of the participants and fundraisers of that race, between October 2012 and June 2013, this very program DISTRIBUTED 650 BACKPACKS OF FOOD TO LOCAL CHILDREN in risk of not having sufficient food to eat over the weekend and school holidays.
How amazing is that? Please help Meg help more kids this year! STOP BY THE OFFICE WITH A CHECK BEFORE SATURDAY! Thank you in advance!

Pretty cool, huh? If any of you readers feel inclined to give... GIVE! I'll run a little faster because you did ; )
(Actually, I'm slower than molasses. I probably won't run faster. I'll be sucking wind. Ha!) Float on...
