Breakfast With Santa Is Coming Up December 3rd!

 


Our 6th Annual Breakfast With Santa Fundraiser is right around the corner! This year we will be offering a little more on your plate and in your cup, along with a little more time with Santa. Enjoy a quick hot breakfast of eggs, sausage and pancakes with OJ, coffee or water. Enjoy kid friendly holiday themed games. And of course, take as many photos as you want with Santa! 

Proceeds from this event sponsor our Angel Tree Shopping for families in need right here in the Pasco County, and also The Sean Bartell Memorial Foundation.

Only three sitting times this year, 8am, 8:45am and 9:30am. Don't wait to get your tickets, this event always sells out!



Every Day Is A Blessing, Every Bag Is, Too!

For the third year, the Pasco Juniors have collected items for and assembled Blessing Bags for our homeless and at risk population in Pasco County. Metropolitan Ministries mission is to "care for the homeless and those at risk of becoming homeless in our community through services that alleviate suffering, promote dignity and instill self-sufficiency… as an expression of the ongoing ministry of Jesus Christ". Their goal is to be America’s most effective caregiver to poor and homeless people.


To service the Pasco County area specifically, they have 2 outreach centers along with their mobile unit, the Metro BrigAIDe. This mobile unit carries resources to help alleviate homelessness throughout the Greater Tampa Bay Area, including Pasco County.

 

 

This year the Pasco Juniors were able to collect 100 bags worth of essentials for the Metro BrigAIDe to have on hand for those in need. Each drawstring backpack included a a baseball hat, reusable water bottle, toothbrush, toothpaste, floss, comb, tissues, Q-tips, deodorant, lip balm, hand sanitizer, washcloth, razor, bar of soap, alcohol wipes, Advil, Neosporin, bandages, sunscreen packet, poncho, sewing kit, hand lotion, crackers and granola bar.


A huge thank you to Lucas, Macyszyn & Dyer, Injury Law Office for donating our physical bags to fill, The Cleaning Pros for donating shaving razors, Florida Department of Health for our reusable water bottles, the Hampton Inn in Odessa for donating soap and the Tampa Bay Woman's Club for donating the baseball caps for each of our bags.

Bunco for the Win!

 The GFWC Pasco Junior Woman's Club finished off the summer with a Bunco Fundraiser. Veteran and first time players came together to have fun and enjoy each others' company while raising funds and awareness for our local Humane Society of Pasco County. 





Between ticket sales and opportunity drawings, the Pasco Juniors are able to make a $1,000 monetary donation directly to Humane Society of Pasco County to assist them with their new building fund and to meet the needs of animals with specific/special needs at this time.

Congratulations to all who won Bunco prizes, door prizes, opportunity baskets, and our 50/50 cash drawing!






 




A big thank you for all whom attended and our local sponsors.
