You may recall that The Maya Macey Foundation was highlighted for Philanthropic Friday on The Candi Dish last month! Well, NOW is the perfect time to re-familiarize yourself with this dynamic organization because there is excitement to report!
Everyone knows the importance of empowering children to flourish because young people ARE our future. The Maya Macey Foundation makes it VERY easy for generous donors to help make education a reality for students that need help.
Here is the exciting part! Currently, the Foundation is tirelessly working on organizing the Annual BBQ FUNdraiser, which will be held on March 9, 2014 in Palmetto Bay, FL. The BBQ is not only a fantastic event, but the funds from selling raffle tickets and auction items allow the Foundation to help dynamic young people.
Right now, the Foundation is looking for donations of products and services for its celebrated raffle and live auction! Current donated items are Florida Panthers tickets (including a meet & greet with players); a 5-night stay at a 2-bedroom condo on Playa del Carmen in Mexico and a stay at Waldorf Astoria in Naples! Great stuff!
So, Candi Dish fans: if you know a business that is interested in donating products or services for this amazing cause, please let me know! No donation is too small.
The Maya Macey Foundation provides educational scholarships to deserving young students who have overcome adversity in their personal lives and need assistance pursuing their dreams in spite of the obstacles they have faced. It is a federally recognized 501©(3) non-profit.
