Issue: #7 September 2008
Greetings!

We have many events planned for the fall and we hope to see you!  Below you find information regarding our Yoga Event and Warm Caps for Babies event.  We are also excited to let you know that on November 29th we wil be having our first banquet!  This is an event that you will not want to miss!  Tickets are available at our Donate Now page on our website or by calling us at 610-431-7385. 

CCB will once again be part of a delegation traveling to Syria to help with the Iraqi refugee crisis.  We appreciate any support you can provide as we prepare for our trip.  One of our most important goals while we are there is to provide a large quantity of baby formula to the women, as many of them are unable to breast feed due to malnutrition.  During our last trip, we found women that had nothing more than tea and sugar to fill their baby bottles.   No donation is too small to help with this effort.  Simply go to our Donate Now page of our website and indicate that you would like your donation marked for the Iraqi Refugee Fund.

Thank you for your support.  We hope to see you at our fall events!
