Dear Friends,
This year, on Tuesday, November 29, 2016,Tomorrow’s Choice Family Resource Center is participating in #GivingTuesday, a global day dedicated to giving. Last year, more than 45,000 organizations in 71 countries came together to celebrate this day. We hope this day will be an inspiration for you and others to consider a donation to Tomorrow’s Choice. End of year giving is the perfect time for so many of us to give and what better place for those of us who love life than to your own local life center, Tomorrow’s Choice? We serve over 250 families EVERY month. Our clients receive 8 diapers when they need them – that’s around 2,000 diapers a month! Your gift helps keep many babies dry. We serve our clients by maintaining baby and maternity clothing rooms. Your gift helps keep our babies, their sibling and their moms looking pretty good! We serve our clients by loving them as Christ loves us. Your gift helps us give Bibles and devotionals to our clients.Your gift feeds the soul! We listen to our clients, help them through issues related to pregnancy- adoption, parenting, post-abortion recovery. We help find referrals when needed to agencies that can help when we cannot. This past year, through your generosity, we were able to repair our badly damaged front steps. We now have a safe, reliable and beautiful entrance to our center. We were also able to purchase and have installed a sturdy and safe back storm door. We own the oldest single-dwelling home in Waukesha and will need to make more repairs in the future. We encourage you to get involved in #GivingTuesday and consider what amount you can give to Tomorrow’s Choice Family Resource Center. Like us on Facebook – visit our web page at www.tcfr.com to donate any time (we just updated our secure "Donate Now" page to include an instant email receipt), or simply write a check and mail directly to: Tomorrow’s Choice Family Resource Center, 912 N. Barstow Street, Waukesha, WI 53186. And THANKS for giving!! Kathy Gates Director, Tomorrow’s Choice Family Resource Center Merry Christmas!
By now you may have heard that a long time volunteer for Tomorrows Choice, Kim Olson, is battling a rare form of cancer. Linus Bell has put together a benefit with the gracious support of Taco Johns in Waukesha. On December 19, the restaurant will donate 10% of the profits for the entire day (7:30am - 11pm) to help Kim and her family offset costs associated with her care and treatment. I've attached a PDF with more of the detail. Could help me put these up in your churches, in your bulletins, at your places of business and wherever you may be able to post these! Here's a couple of other ways to find out about Kim: http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/kimolson The site will ask you to register, but there are some neat blog posts on there. Also, if you wish to give directly to Kim and her family, here is the go fund me site: https://www.gofundme.com/a7dc4k5f Thank you all for your help and I'm looking forward to some awesome Mexican food on 12/19. Thank you, Dan Bushner Greetings to all who support our mission at Tomorrow's Choice.
We are averaging more and more clients each day we are open. More opportunities to share God's love and give support and friendship. Please do not tire of hearing babies needs diapers! To help you out, this post is to let you know of an opportunity at your local Target -- this week buy 3 boxes of diapers and receive a $20 Target gift card! Just for you! We are in need of diapers size 5, also 4 and 3. If you could supply 3 boxes, and then treat yourself to a $20 shopping experience at the same time, I think that would be a nice blessing to your generosity! Please consider this opportunity and share with someone else you know. Thank you and blessings today and everyday! Yesterday a client asked if my church could spend $20,000 to sponsor her 2 brothers to leave Afghanistan and come to the US. Not sure that is possible, but I think maybe we could do a box or 2 of diapers! Keep praying!!!
