Top Gun Ride for Children


Please help the Ultimate Book Soiree raise funds for the 8th Annual Top Gun Ride for Children here in Atlanta, Ga.

If you are in the Atlanta, Ga. area, the 8th Annual Top Gun Ride to benefit the Center for Children and Young Adults (CCYA) and the Georgia National Guard Family Support Foundation will take place April 17, 2010 rain or shine. The escorted ride departs from the Hooters in Kennesaw at 4:30 PM, travels through West Cobb and then continues on to the Clay National Guard Center where everyone will enjoy music, food and a raffle for a Triumph Bonneville Motorcycle valued at nearly $10,000.

Use the link http://store.barefootbooks.com/?bf_affiliate_code=000-06ey-2006 to look for and order books for children ages 1-12 years old. 90% of all profits will go to fund the Center for Children and Young Adults (CCYA) and the Georgia National Guard Family Support Foundation.

You can learn more about the Top Gun Ride and CCYA at the links below. You can also visit The Ultimate Book Soiree at www.ultimatebooksoiree.info to place orders outside of this fundraiser or request your own fundraiser or book drive.

Devastation in Haiti

Hello All!

By now, I know you have heard of the earthquake that hit Haiti on Tuesday. From what I've seen and heard, the destruction is unimaginable. While listening to the news, I was directed to visit the website below for organizations accepting charitable contributions. If you have not already done so, I urge you to at your earliest convenience.

For those of you that really know me, times have been difficult but I will make every effort to do what I can to help those in need. If you have access to this e-mail you are far more fortunate than those in Port-au-Prince tonight.

If you hear of any other legitimate aid organizations, please pass the word along. I am also looking for any organization that may be taking clothes and shoes to those that need them.

Thank you and please continue to pray!
