As the Social Justice Committee gets our new Bay Youth Interdisciplinary Leadership Development (BYILD) project off the ground, they continue to organize activities with the local Dept. of Children & Families (DCF) and the youth in foster care as they near adulthood.
At the Meet & Greet dinner on Nov. 5, UU members, a group of foster youth and DCF adult staff brainstormed ideas for events, especially for the upcoming holiday season. We have a back sale fundraiser planned for the Panama City Christmas Parade and a holiday event planned at a local nursing home in December
To prepare for our Bake Sale Fundraiser, join us Tues., Dec. 3 at 4:30 pm, to help bake, decorate and package goodies for a bake sale fundraiser to be held on Dec. 7 during the Panama City Christmas Parade. Funds raised will be used primarily in the Service Learning/BYILD program for projects like the Community Garden.
We are still feeling our way toward cementing our partnership with DCF, and your presence and enthusiasm can help it grow into a very good thing for the youth and for us.
Please RSVP for each of these events to Bob Gilmore (gilzach@yahoo.com) so we will know how many to plan for and to let you know of any changes to locations.
