Our Annual Cause

We are brainstorming groups for our annual fundraiser, Band-Aid. Here are the possibilities:

• Project C.U.R.E.
• Juvenile Diabetes Research Fund (JDRF)
• The CARA Program
• FICCS: Foundation for International Cardiac & Children's Services
• Fabretto Children's Foundation
• Feed the Children
• Donors Choose: Teachers Ask, You Choose
• Globus Relief: You non-profit solution to healthcare worldwide
• Syd Rocks: Research for Langerhan's Cell Histiocytosis
• Misericordia: Heart of Mercy
• One Acre Fund
• Our Place
• Heifer International 

One idea we discussed when choosing an organization was whether it has a local or international focus.
