Greetings! 

Meeting

We at Radiant Hands hope this email finds you well! As you can see, we have upgraded our email system to serve our community better. We hope that you like our new look, and please remember we are always searching for ways to improve our activities and performance so feel free to offer suggestions and ideas. 

 

Below are this week's community announcements; most importantly there is a sister from Iraq who's child is receiving treatment at Shands and she is in need of help this weekend. Please consider this announcement and if there is any way that you can assist this sister please let us know as soon as possible.
 
Daughter needs surgery
A woman and her daughter are arriving from Iraq on Tuesday the 13th so that the daughter may have surgery at Shands.  Rayiah and her family will be housing the sister for two weeks, but they will be out of town Friday the 16th until Monday the 19th.  Is there an Arabic speaking family that could house the sister and her daughter for those days? The other choice is there a sister who would be willing to stay at Rayiah's house one or all of those days?  Please contact Jean Ritch (352-339-5094) and she will give you Rayiah's telephone numbers.   

Kickoff to Corporate Sponsorship Roundup!

 

This September our annual fundraising dinner will be bigger and better than ever! Not only will it be held at the beautiful and historic Gainesville Women's Club, we will be co-sponsoring the event with Project Downtown, AND inviting corporate sponsors to fund the event. For this we need your help! On May 24th (Saturday, 2pm; location to be announced) we will be distributing sponsorship packets and tips to volunteers who will contact local businesses and request support. This fundraising effort cannot be successful without your help! Please plan to attend the meeting (with a friend) to help Radiant Hands and Project Downtown continue our valuable community efforts.
