World Card Making Day and Ronald McDonald House Fund Raiser

World Card Making Day and Ronald McDonald House Fund Raiser for St Pete Houses

Thank you so much to all my customers and fellow demonstrators and friends that made this day possible and a big thank you to First Lutheran Church In Inverness for letting us use their Facilities!
It was a fabulous day and everyone showed up bringing their creative ideas and craftiness.  I am always so impressed with all of the ways a card can be put together.  Most of the Cards were pre designed and pre-stamped but some of our attendees put their own spin on each card. I loved watching the amazement on some of their faces as they put each card together with tender love and care and I know the patients and their families that will use these cards will enjoy giving them as much as the recipients that are lucky to receive one of these special cards.

We started our event at 10 am and we had several participants show up early and were ready to get started right away.  We had maybe close to 20 or more in attendance and most of them each completed all the card designs we had to offer.   Some of them had limited time so could only stay with us a short time and picked their favorite designs to do.  This was our 3rd annual event and will do it again next year.  It is a way of me giving back to the organization that helped me many years ago when I needed help when my son needed heart surgery and we used the Ronald McDonald House in Gainesville FL. He is now a healthy Senior almost ready to graduate from High school and plays in the Citrus High School Hurricanes Band and Jazz Band.

Our event ended at 2pm with most of our card kits completed and the ones that did not get completed will be completed by my student helpers from the Lecanto High School Interact Program that will visit the RMH on  Veterans Day for a Field Trip if we can get enough parents to help drive them.
The Students help me monthly put together Card Kits and Sleeve the cards that get donated to me and ready my donation boxes for the RMH in St Pete so I thought they needed to visit the center.  Foolarr helping me they earn community service hours toward their bright scholars scholarships.

I am sharing pictures of some of the cards we completed..
