OUR FUNDRAISING
“One Town, One Donation, Twenty-Four Causes”

familyservice
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 to our member agencies.
