We're
Out to Get $75,000 for Our Cause
Dear
Friend,
We're very excited to let you know that
The Father Fred Foundation has been selected to be part of the
Art Van Million Dollar Charity Challenge. Art Van Furniture is
challenging several charities to raise as much money as possible, and is giving
the organization that raises the most a $75,000 donation to add
to their cause.Father Fred is raising
money specifically for our housing assistance program. Keeping
a roof over one's head is one of life's basic human needs and whenever we can,
we try to help families stay in their homes or help them obtain affordable
housing -- keeping them from falling through the cracks.
We need
your help. There are 54 other charities vying for these
prizes (though we're the only one in northern Michigan)... We think we can win
and to do so, we definitely need your help. Here's how:
- DONATE NOW either in addition to or in lieu
of what you typically donate each year.
- CONDUCT YOUR OWN FUNDRAISER via CrowdRise and
get your company, family, circle of friends, etc. involved in helping you raise
money on behalf of Father Fred. Simply click on the "Fundraise for this
campaign" link.
- HELP SPREAD THE WORD to your many circles. Help us go
really viral with our need (housing assistance) and the Art Van Challenge. Free
money is at stake. Lots of it. Email is the best route but social media works
too.
We'll be sending emails throughout the Challenge asking for
your help (there's a new challenge each week that could land us additional money
from Art Van), so please pardon the repetitiveness. But every donation makes a
difference, no matter how small.
Thanks so much for your
support.

Rosemary Hagan
Executive Director
