Friends of JCDS chairman John Holt graciously accepts money raised by JCDS consumers during a Valentine's Day carnation sale. All proceeds go to Friends of JCDS! Let the debate on global warming rage on. On this there is no debate: your Friends of JCDS Board is "heating" things up as the young year tries desperately to get through winter!
We have four committees that meet in the board's off months: The Projects and Programs Committee, which oversees our housing project among other things; The Fundraising and Communications Committee, very busy right now preparing for Restyle Runway in May; The People Committee, charged with recruiting and maintaining solid board membership; and our newest committee, Advocacy, which will, as its name implies, advocate for people with disabilities and educate the public.
It's a real team effort, with each board member selecting a committee or two that best fits their skills and interests! Outside ideas are always welcome....so let us know if you have any thoughts and we'll put you in touch with our committee chairs.
It's a labor of love for all of our board members, and I thank them for "heating" things up, even in the dead of winter!
Meantime, I'll talk to our Fox 4 weather team about speeding up spring!
