Halloween came early for the shelter children at the
Charlotte County Homeless Coalition this year -- thanks to the many
volunteers, individuals and local businesses that came together to make
it all happen. On Thursday night -- Oct. 25th, 2012 -- Kids 4 Change
poured into the shelter with costumes, candy, cupcakes, punch and even a
couple of balloon animal experts -- filling the night air with haunting
delight!
On
Saturday -- the AmeriCorps VISTAs serving Charlotte County and the
shelter's party planning committee put on a spooktacular party complete
with a pumpkin carving contest -- where everyone was a winner, candy
apples and zombie pinata. Thank you to Subway in Murdock and Subway on
Harbor for donating the delicious sandwiches and Papa John's Pizza for
donating the birthday gift certificates! Whoop Whoop -- what a treat it
was to be a part of this amazing day. So as you trick or treat and
gorge yourself in Milk Duds, Snickers and lollipops this year -- count
your blessings because as we all go home and tuck ourselves into our
warm beds -- the Charlotte County Homeless Coalition continues to be
filled to capacity with children and families who no longer have that
luxury.
HAPPY HALLOWEEN
LOVE,
KELLY
