THE HAL HERMAN CHILDREN’S FUND “DOUBLE THE GOOD” fundraising DRIVE
The Hal Herman Children’s Fund at Women In Distress helps support the smallest survivors of domestic violence. This year we are back to double the good for the children that need it the most in recognition of National Children’s Day! The Sally Goldman Foundation has pledged to match donations so we can DOUBLE THE GOOD for the children.
The prize for the raffle drawing will be a 7 day Princess cruise for 2 – from ANY port, to ANY destination. The possibilities are endless with this cruise, and all proceeds will go to giving the smallest survivors hope and endless possibilities for their future!
The raffle will be drawn on Friday, June 10th at the Jim & Jan Moran Family Center. We will also be hosting an private event for the children in our Emergency Shelter on June 10th to celebrate National Children’s Day and to double joy 🙂
