But we're not fussy. We'll take a lot of good people.
The Children's Enrichment Committee has thrived for over a hundred years thanks to the many people who've donated their time and money to help children in Orange County.
We continue to have an active and committed group of volunteers. We purchased and wrapped over 300 gifts this holiday season for approximately 170 children in foster care. We help three extraordinary young people with the Emily Akers Scholarship Fund. We help homeless children with immediate needs through our involvement with HONOR.
Our next business meeting is Monday, April 11, 2:00 PM, at Middletown Thrall Library. March's meeting was a lively one and there's no reason to think April's won't be as well.
If you want to help out and have a delicious meal at the same time, why not make a reservation for Sunday dinner at John's Harvest Inn on Sunday, April 17 (845-343-6630). It's a Dining To Make A Difference Day, and the restaurant will donate 10% of what it earns to the CEC. Bring some friends or your entire family for a lovely dining experience. That dessert you indulge in will help us with our work.
Finally, if you're already a member and want to increase your involvement, the CEC is looking for new board members. Email us at cecorangecounty@gmail.com and a member of the nominating committee will get back to you with information.
Let's work together to keep the Children's Enrichment Committee strong for another hundred years!
