| Fuel
for our Families -This is a new program designed to help
our families meet the burden of high gasoline costs. Any gas
cards appreciated! This is a great program for school groups
and church groups as they can pool their resources One
gallon at a time!
Help With Other Fundraisers – FHF welcomes all
volunteers. We help at Ribfest and Octoberfest in Naperville
since the sponsors, Exchange and Rotary Clubs, are very generous
supporters of FHF.
Mentoring – It is a privilege to be part of
a family’s journey toward self-sufficiency. If you are
ready for a new challenge (training provided) and have an
average of 2 to 3 hours per week to spare, we need you!
Service Projects – Are you looking for a service
project for your scout group, religious education class, bible
study class, bunco group. etc?
Professional Services – Our families often need
the services of an attorney, doctor, dentist, orthodontist,
hair stylist, etc. These services are unaffordable luxuries
for our clients.
Emergency Babysitters – Our clients sometimes
need childcare help. They may be taking a night or weekend
class, which is very difficult since childcare centers are
not open then. Their child may have an ear infection and fever,
in which case the childcare center will not allow them to
attend. We are building a list of willing, occasional babysitters.
Mentor Support – There are times when one of
our families has an emergency need such as transportation
when their car is in the shop or similar circumstances. Can
you be on call to help if you are available at the time?
Our 13th Annual Family Fun Walk is held every fall!
- Families have been enjoying our annual fundraising walk
for years! Bring your entire family; strollers are welcome.
Details for next year's walk will be available in summer 2008.
