Greetings!
  
Welcome to CFPA's first monthly newsletter.  One of my goals this year was to keep in contact with our Members and remind each Member of the benefits that are available through membership.  This month CFPA presents two (2) FREE seminars.  The seminars will be held on Saturday, March 26, for a total of 3.5 CLE credits.  I hope you enjoy the seminars and this wonderful benefit.  Also, don't forget our First Quarter Charity, the Adult Literacy League, which is a wonderful local organization that needs our help.  See below for more information.

CFPA's 1st Quarter Charity
Adult
The Adult Literacy League is CFPA's 1st Quarter Charity.

Did you know that one in every five Central Florida adults reads at or below the 5th grade level. For them, simple everyday tasks present real problems. Reading product labels, following street signs or filling out job applications can be difficult and frustrating.


Families suffer, too. Parents with low literacy skills have trouble reading to their children and many don't even try. Sadly, the literacy levels of children are strongly linked to the educational levels of their parents.


Thankfully, the Adult Literacy League (ALL) is here to help. Through volunteer and donor support, ALL is able to reach more and more adults and families . . . and in doing so, help expand their world one page at a time.

 

If you are able to make a small donation, please view the Donation Wish List below and contact Natalie Colon, CP, FRP at President@cfpainc.org to make arrangements for pick up.   You can also drop off your donations at the 1st Quarter General Membership Meeting on March 26, 2011.
