Fundraising and Fun

The Associates Council Events Committee has started off 2009 in style! Our "Love's Hangover" happy hour at Union Bar (NYC) served as a mini fundraiser and brought out members of the volunteer community and the CAS executive office, staff and board members. Thanks for all the AC members who helped get the word out and brought friends. Thanks also to all those who manned the door and greeted potential new members. Happy Hours are a great opportunity to introduce CAS to the community and to meet up with your friends from the AC who you might not get to see as much as you would like.

Please check out the CAS website for the next happy hour and come out for a great time for a great cause! We party with a purpose!

Looking ahead, we are in the midst of planning our Spring Fling event. We are gearing up for a great event, much like the Toy Drive in 12/08. We're in the planning stages, but there's still time to join the planning committee. Maybe you can secure a great venue, a great raffles prize, or other sponsor. In this difficult economy our fundraising efforts are even more important to the continuation of CAS efforts. We're looking for creative people who have creative ways to fundraise while having fun. If you'd like to help, please contact: scottm@childrensaidsociety.org or maliap@childrensaidsociety.org.

Get ready for a great events year with CAS and the Associates Council!
