As I had stated in the April update, some churches are choosing to ramp up their donations to Family Promise during the week that would have been their host week. Our host week would have started this Sunday May 31. You will see that we have been asked to donate personal hygiene products including: deodorant,lotion, shampoo, body wash, toothpaste and tooth brushes. With the church building not being open, collection does seem to be a bit of a logistical issue?! If need be, I can pick up donations or you can send them or drop them off as instructed in the text below. We are NOT limited to these items, feel free to donate gift cards, cash or other items as well. THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR SUPPORT! <br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">Please let me know if anyone is interested in the golf outing or the "Night Without a Bed"event.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">FROM the Executive Director at Family Promise:</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"> <br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">

plan the event. Right now we are seeking individuals to help with the following

20, 2020</b>, Family Promise (national) is hosting a social media challenge to
raise awareness for families experiencing homelessness. Family Promise of
Waukesha County will be participating as well. The purpose of the event is to
raise awareness about families who are experiencing homelessness during the
pandemic. In the past, many congregations have their youth groups participate
in a tent or box city. Since the pandemic most of those have been canceled. We
invite you – your congregations to participate in a <i>Night Without a Bed.
</i>To do so, you are invited to sleep anywhere without a bed on the
night of June 20. Then share your experience using a video blog or photos with
friends and family on social media. You can also challenge others to also complete
the #NightWithoutABed<span></span></span></p>
