This last November, the Lone Star chapter decided to try something different to keep their mom meetings exciting and well
attended. Sheri Bastie, V.P. of Philanthropy, came up with the great
idea to have a Philanthropy Fair. At this meeting, the moms divided up by
grade level and worked on projects for four of our philanthropies. For
Metrocrest Social Services, they made candy poppers out of empty toilet paper tubes, covered them with wrapping paper and tied on the
ends. For Dallas Life, they made gift bags containing Bibles and
journals. For Meals on Wheels, they made gift bags with note cards and
stamps and, for Support the Troops, they made gift bags containing a Starbucks
gift card or an AT&T gift card to be handed to each member of the military
as they stepped off the plane. Since everyone enjoyed the fresh venue,
the fellowship with the other grade level moms and helping out our wonderful
philanthropies, they are planning on it again for next year!
