OUR
FUNDRAISING “One Town, One Donation, Twenty-Four
Causes”
Family Service League
Over
the years, our fundraising efforts have depended upon the generosity
of our donors. In addition to our FOCUS direct mail campaigns, our
Thanksgiving Day Run and St. Patrick’s Run have become
Huntington traditions.
The
Fund also sponsors an annual Golf Outing and Citizen of
the Year Dinner Dance, both of which have added significant
funds to our yearly campaigns. The Townwide Fund is Your Community
Chest! Your contributions allow us to provide funding to our member
agencies.
Your
contributions allow us to provide valuable products and
services
