Yesterday I met with the coordinator at the Shelter of Flint, a shelter for homeless women and children.
I was introduced to this organization last year through my real estate association and volunteered to photograph their Coldest night of the year fundraiser.
The fundraiser is coming up again this February and after meeting with the coordinator yesterday, touring the shelter, and hearing about all the things they do with the kids to help them continue to lead an active and adventurous life despite their situation I would like to do more to help support these struggling families through the Shelter of Flint.
The Coldest Night of the Year fundraiser is essentially a walk a thon. We are collecting monetary donations through our team online now through February 28th.
If you would like to participate I am looking for others to join my team and help recruit donors.
You are not required to walk, but it would be great if you did come to the fundraiser on Saturday February 28th.
If you would like to help out at all here are your options:
1. Join my team through the link below and work towards recruiting others to our team and collecting monetary donations that can be accepted directly on the Shelter of Flints website under the coldest night of the year fundraiser. Our team is "Cardinal Residential Cleaning Services".
2. Simply make a donation without joining our team and share the donation page and mission of the shelter to help out.
3. Volunteer to help at the fundraiser. You can sign up to do so on the website as well under the coldest night of the year section.
4. The shelter is also looking for volunteers on a regular basis. Check out the website and fill out the volunteer intake form. The coordinator will contact you, set up a meeting, and have you come in for more info and a tour.
