February 2008 Meeting

When: February 9th, 2008
Time: 2:00 pm
Where: Faith Community Church of the Nazarene 430 Peach Ave. Clovis CA

The Details: Dr. Malcolm MacDonald, pediatric cardio-thoracic surgeon at CHCC, has graciously agreed to come and speak. He would like to have an open dialog, so come prepared with questions! He is on call that day, so I'm sure we will all understand if he gets called in to work and cannot make it. In that case we will go ahead with our CHD Day party and try and reschedule for another time. We will have a dessert potluck and socializing for the adults and the kids will play games, do crafts and help paint a canvas to be auctioned off at the Camp Taylor fundraiser dinner.
We hope to see everyone there.
If you have any questions feel free to email me, leave a comment or call.

CHD Awareness Week

As most of you know February 7th - 14th is designated CHD Awareness week. To help spread awareness Mended Little Hearts national office has sent our group some awareness materials. I wanted to let you all know about these materials in case you wanted to help spread awareness about CHD next month. We have most of the materials needed to have a successful CHD Awareness week / and or month! We have:
CHD Awareness brochures - if you know of a person or company that would be willing to help print these in color it would be extremely helpful!
sample proclomation letters
news release to send to newspapers / news stations
letter to the editor
sample public service announcement
and Mended Little Hearts fact sheets
So, if you'd like to help us spread the word about CHD either email me at mom2macandzach@sbcglobal.net or leave a comment.
Anything and everything you can do is greatly appreciated!
