On Sunday, a Havre de Grace non-profit Good Cause held its second annual Christmas with a Cause event providing a Community Christmas Party and gifts to more than 200 children from 66 families who might not otherwise have been able to celebrate this holiday so dear to all of us.
This was twice as many children as were helped last year. The party was held at the Havre de Grace Community Center on Lewis Lane and the gifts were distributed at Good Cause's Community Headquarters, 616 Ontario St., in Havre de Grace. This event, as well as other community events, Single Moms Spa Day and Fall Fest, were largely supported by their Thirty One Bags Bingo and March Mulch Madness fundraisers as well as numerous private contributions.
Good Cause plans on continuing these events and fundraisers in 2012. The Thirty One Bags Bingo event has already been scheduled for Feb. 24, 2012 at the Havre de Grace Community Center on Laraget Lane.
Also, Restore Church's Christmas Eve Services are at 5 and 6:30 p.m., Havre de Grace's Community Center, 100 Lagaret Lane, Pastor Jess Bouse.
For more information on this event as well as any of their other initiatives contact info@serveagoodcause.org or call 443-502-0152.
