Pasta Dinner Fundraiser


We’d like to invite all of our friends, family, and adoption supporters to come out for a fun and yummy evening of pasta, salad and good company at the New Market Grange Hall on Thursday, October 24th starting at 6:00pm. We would like to encourage ticket purchase prior to the event so we can make sure we have the right amount of food and we don’t go over the capacity of the grange hall. We’ll also be doing a raffle again as we did at the pancake breakfast.
Tickets are now on sale. Tickets are $10 for adults and $5 for children ages 3-10. Children ages 2 and under are free. Family price is capped at $35. We support big families! :) Also, you can purchase raffle ticket(s) for $1 per ticket. We’ll try to post a list of the prizes a week prior to the event if possible.
To purchase tickets online, click the link to the right that says "Donate" and pay with a paypal account or any major credit card. There will be a place to include a message for the recipient - please indicate here how many adult and child tickets you are purchasing. Or, if you simply wish to make a donation, just indicate that on the message.You can also purchase tickets from us in person and pay by cash or check made out to Sarah Hourigan with "pasta dinner" in the memo line.
We are dotting the I’s and crossing the T’s on our home study and hoping to be able to have our dossier put together and sent off before the year is through. In order to accomplish this we’ll be gathering and notarizing lots of paperwork. Fundraising is a huge part of us being able to move forward with our adoption. Please consider investing in the future of an Ethiopian child. We are forever grateful for your love and support!
