Greetings! 
 
 
THE FIRST STAGE

 
 
 
 Radiant Hands had its first planning meeting for the 6th Annual Fundraising Dinner.

The date for the dinner has been set for Oct. 22, 2011.  The venue still has to be determined but this year, it will be held in Gainesville.

We are very excited that this year we will  have a speaker from UF. The idea was suggested by one of the members of the community. Dr. Ross is an Assistant Professor in the School of Art and Art History. and she has expressed and interest in making a presentation. She received her BA in History from Yale University and her AM and PhD in History of Art and Architecture from Harvard Universsity. Her research focuses on 15th & 16th century art in Europe and includes early modern decorative arts, European reception of the Middle Ease. She has developed a lecture on "Three Religions in Jerusalem" in which she talks about the structures the three religions built at their main sites in the city and the relationship among them. Her lectures are designed to be of interest to a diverse audience and she has received high evaluations for her classes.

The committee hopes to present a program that will be of interest  to everyone. Another meeting will be planned in the near future, If you can't come to our meeings please contact admin@radianthands.org with your ideas, comments and suggestions.

We are planning to have a silent auction, and then separate items to purchase on site. The topic of having a special item for auction was discussed and we are looking for further input in this area.

Please remember, this is a community effort and we look forward to your participation.

                                              SCHOLARSHIP


Plans are moving ahead with the scholarship project. Application forms have been delivered to both the Marion County CTAE office and the Alachua County School Board. The administration there has agreed to pre-screen applicants for us and recommend students who deserve assistance.  The administration at the educational centers recommended that the students be responsible for partial payment and therefore Radiant Hands will provide partial funding for the exam. This partial payment will then permit two scholarships per month to each center.

 
If you would like to be involved in the Scholarship Committee, or the Annual Fundraising Dinner Committee, please contact admin@radianthands.org.

Radiant Hands still needs dedicated people to help with our efforts. Please consider joining us on these projects
