Fundraiser Update

Thanks to everyone who came out to support our Race For Home this past Saturday. We couldn't have had more perfect weather for a race. Special thanks to all of you who came from Ohio/Michigan/Indiana to be with us! We raised $420 and are happy to add that to our fund! We will be posting pictures soon!
Looking forward to this coming Saturday's Fundraiser - Shopping!!! Come on over to Crestwood and order some Christmas gifts with vendors like 31 Gifts, Pampered Chef, Premier Designs, Mary Kay, and even get a chair massage/snacks while you shop!! If you can't attend but would like to buy online, I have online accounts set up for 31 Gifts and Pampered Chef. If you would like, you can have things sent to me so you don't have to pay additional shipping and I will get your gifts to you.
For 31 Gifts go to http://www.mythirtyone.com/maggiegrimes/  from there you can look at the catalog and place orders. Make sure you find our event, it is under Bethany Hall, to make sure your order's proceeds go towards our adoption.
For Pampered Chef orders go to http://www.pamperedchef.biz/nancymcleroy  again, you can click shop online and search for our event under my name.
If you would like to buy something from Mary Kay go to http://www.marykay.com/klenon/default.aspx you can order through Kim and just mention somewhere in the comment line that you are friends of Kevin and Bethany Hall.
Hope to see lots of you there :-) Thanks again for your support!
ALSO, we have our Lifesong account set up so people can donate a direct gift and receive a tax deduction. If you would like to donate directly to our lifesong account you can do so online at http://www.lifesongfororphans.org/donation.html and click on the donate button. Put preference Hall/#1680 adoption in the purpose line. You can also send checks made payable to Lifesong for Orphans with the same preference in the memo section. Checks can be sent to:

Sorry for the long update :-) thank you again for partnering with us in bringing a child home!
