Mark your Calendars!

Ok everyone we are so excited to get things going for the Dallas chapter of FSA again! We have some fun activities coming up that we wanted to make you aware of.

When:
Saturday September 19th 5:30 pm

What:
Ronald McDonald House items Drive Dinner

Details:
The Ronald McDonald House of Dallas is a temporary
home-away-from-home that serves
and sustains families of
seriously ill or injured children receiving treatment in a Dallas hospital.

Some of our adoptive couples who have come to Dallas for the birth of their children have been blessed by the Ronald McDonald House and the service they provide. Now is our chance to give back. We will be holding a drive for several items they need from now until September 19th. On the evening of September 19th we will have a dinner for all Dallas FSA members and collect all the items to drop off at the RMH of Dallas.

The following is a list of items that are needed:

Kitchen:
styrofoam cups, bowls, and plates, plastic spoons, forks, knives, ziplock bags (gallon size)

House:
HE laundry detergent, lysol wipes, dryer sheets, dishwashing liquid (Dawn or Joy), Lysol spray, paper towels

For the families:
Feminine products
Pillows

For the pantry:
canned meats, individual servings of pudding and canned fruit, individual servings of pretzels and chips, snack cakes and cookies, crackers, chunky soup, granola bars, juic boxes, drink mixes (crystal light, or lemonade)


For the health and safety of the guests at the Ronald McDonald House, they ask that the items are NEW and unopenned. They have stringent health codes, and ask everyone to look at expiration dates and recall lists.


We will have more details on where to meet for the dinner coming soon. We look forward to seeing all of you there!

Also we will be having a conference on Nov 6th and 7th. Look for more details on this event to come soon!
