Pay It Forward: Ravens Roost #4 Adopted 7 Families

This year the Ravens Roost adopted 7 families of three children each through the Salvation Army for our Pay It Forward effort.  Seven team captains volunteered to take on the responsibility of raising $100.00 for food gift cards and presents (clothes and toys) for the families.  The Roost also donated an additional $700.00 dollars for food for Thanksgiving for those same families.

In addition Ravens Roost #4 donated toys to the Families Who Have been Affected by Domestic Violence.  In that effort, Jack and Candace raffled off a Torrey Smith autographed jersey to buy clothes and toys.  Jack and Candace also held a toy drive during the Roost’s annual Christmas party and bowling event to raise money for Special Olympics.

Candace was happy to report that her SUV was loaded to the ceiling with all of the generous gifts.  Jack and Candace, as chair of this years effort, want to thank each of you for your kindness.  It means so much for these families.
