Hello Friends!

As most of you know, I've been working alongside the rest of the Board at LHH to put together a fun night out, worthy of paying the babysitter, to host a different kind of fundraiser for Little Helping Hands. No seated dinner at a round table eating chicken, listening to an auctioneer. This is a classically Austin event: We'll have an awesome live band (Gourds front man Kevin Russell and his other band Shinyribs), great food from Ranch 616, among others, and a fun downtown venue with a great rooftop bar. So please call your friends and make it a date night, a couple's night, a girl/guy's night out or just come hang with me and my friends and have a fun night out for a very worthy cause. Last year alone, our young Little Helping volunteers:

· Donated and prepared more than 9,500 meal servings/food items for the homeless, workingpoor and children or families experiencing traumatic times.

· Spent more than 1,800 hours sorting, bagging or assembling donations such as clothes, food and school supplies.

· Logged more than 500 hours visiting with the elderly, setting up apartments for newly arriving refugees, and helping out at charitable events.

· Broke down approximately 700 computers for recycling and reuse.

· Spent more than 1,700 hours on city/park clean-ups and other environmental or beautification projects.

In addition to our great report card from last year, I will be spearheading a new project to bring volunteer opportunities to children in underserved areas who otherwise, might not get the learning experience or self-esteem builder of helping others. More on that to come.

So, I'm asking you all, my friends, to help me spread the word to your friends! (and to the rest of mine I am inadvertently leaving off of this e-mail :). I will be sending out more e-mails to various groups today that you may end up on, so my apologies in advance for any duplicates you get! And thank you so much to those that have already purchased tickets!!

Thank you,

Jill
