CURRENT AND UPCOMING EVENTS

In keeping with the begrudging arrival of spring this year following such a long and nasty winter, the EMCCC Board of Directors is offering three very exciting events that will benefit both the child care center and the friends and supporters of the child care center. Currently, an internet plant sale is being offered via Flower Power Fundraising through April 29th. To order perennials and bulbs go to: http://www.flowerpowerfundraising.com/campaign?campaign_id=6387. Once there click on the EMCCC link and then order your plants and flowers. Fifty percent of sales go to the child care center. All plants and bulbs will be mailed directly to the purchaser. The annual plant sale at the child care center is running simultaneously this year with the internet plant sale. The traditional offerings of annual plants and hanging baskets are again included. Order forms are available at the EMCCC office or can be e-mailed to interested parties. Contact the EMCCC office at 914-631-2126 or information@masciachildcare.org for additional information. Orders are due to the office by April 25th. Finally, a tag sale will be offered on the grounds of the child care center at 171 Sheldon Avenue on Saturday, May 14th from 10am until 3pm. Please no early birds! The rain date will be Sunday May 15th. Donations of items are currently being accepted. Contact the child care center for drop off information. The only items not being accepted for the tag sale are clothing and bedding. Otherwise, books, household items, jewelry, tools, and anything else sellable will be accepted and sold. There will be a bake sale that day as well. All is being done in support of EMCCC so please participate in any way that you can. As always, it is all for the kids!
