$80,000 Goal Reached!

Right on "target" for the New Year! The Target Water Project's goal of $80,000 was met, but let's not stop theTarget Water Thermometer fundraising! Donations are still coming in and Cambodia still needs accessible clean water. You may recall, the goal for the Malaria Project was $75,000, yet FAWCO raised $165,000, and what a difference it made!

The Target Water Project Thermometer will be reset, allowing us to celebrate every donation exceeding the goal of $80,000.  Fundraising for the Target Water Project will continue through December 2012.

Let's keep changing the flow in Cambodia!

We are still in need of live auction items, such as: vacation homes stays,  homes stays in popular cities, B&B or hotel stays; or a special item that will help fuel the excitement and open the pocketbooks. We encourage you and your club members to donate to this year's live auction in Dublin. If you haven't seen The Foundation's conference page at www.fawcofoundation.org, we encourage you to view the live auction items donated so far. There are some fabulous getaways awaiting your bid! We hope to have all live auction items in place by February 10th. Please contact Ann De Simoni with items or questions you have.

We're looking forward to seeing you "Over The Rainbow" at The Foundation evening, Friday March 23, 2012.   Click here for more details.

Over the Rainbow there's never a care,
So come all ye ladies, lovely and fair,
Sing a song or drink a pint, 

Auctions galore on the night,
We hope

lots of funds to raise and share!

#2
Over the Rainbow is not to be missed
Our lucky dip will have a new twist
Balloons to pop
Prizes non-stop
Don't worry you'll get the gist!   

#3
Together we'll raise our voices in song
Until the auction items are gone
Silent Treasures
Live Adventures
We hope you will all come along 
#4
May your hearts, spirits & pockets be open
The Foundation programs need every token
For Awards and NEEEDs
Grants and good deeds
We hope all records will be broken    

#5
Our leprechaun seeks pots of gold
To be filled from our FAWCO fold
Whether Euro or dollar
It's not a bother
The benefits to others yet untold
