Family-Friendly Fundraising? Fantastic!

As much as we all like to help others in our community, sometimes when you are the parent of young children, other things can easily derail your best efforts. When there are nap schedules to consider, babysitters to hire, and our own financial limitations affecting us, participating in any sort of fundraiser can become pretty tricky! Luckily, there are some fantastic fundraising events coming up in our area in the next few weeks that are of great benefit to local children and wonderfully family-friendly!

Tonight, Texas Roadhouse in Montgomeryville will be donating a portion of all dinner sales to the Killian and Margaret Scull Ongoing Education Fund in honor of the children's father, the late Todd Scull, who was a beloved member of the Royersford Texas Roadhouse team. To take part, present this flyer to your server this evening.

Another upcoming event that deserves special mention is the BounceU - Adelaide's Angels fundraiser coming up this Friday, February 25th. Proceeds from this event will help to fund the Sibling Care Program at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) which offers sibling support for families with a child in the Intensive Care Unit.

Hatfield's Applebee's Restaurant has also been a great, consistent supporter of local children's organizations. This Sunday morning, February 27th, Towamencin Youth Association (TYA) will be holding a Flapjack Fundraiser at Applebee's to raise money for youth Softball programs. Then, on Saturday, March 5th, a second Flapjack Fundraiser will take place to support Inglewood Elementary School. Funds raised on that day will help offset the costs of the children's field trips for the year.

Further details on each of these events can be found on the North Penn Under Ten Calendar. If you know of any others, please let us know!
