This one's a little different...

...and even closer to my heart than most. 

Those of you who are kind enough to have been reading my blog for a while will know that I am a volunteer and team leader for the National Inclusion Project. The Project, through innovative programs and partnerships, is leading the way for inclusive communities throughout the US to provide opportunities for ALL children to play together...without barriers. 

This year is our 10th anniversary; I have been with the organization for all of those 10 years, and I am so proud of how far we have come. Thousands of children and hundreds of programs have benefited from our team's expertise, and the stories we hear every month about their experiences gladden everyone's hearts. 

This year, our 10th Anniversary Gala is taking place in Charlotte, NC on Oct 12th, 2013; as part of that celebration, a silent auction will be held the afternoon prior to the Gala celebration. More information about the Gala and ticket sales can be found HERE. If you are in the area, it is an event you will never forget, and we'd LOVE to see you there!

All proceeds from the Silent Auction go directly to the National Inclusion Project's programs on behalf of the children. More than 500 attendees are expected at the event. 

Might YOU be interested in donating an item, or a gift card in lieu of a finished item, for the Silent Auction?

Please contact me if so via this blog...it's an incredible opportunity to get your name out there to a new audience....and those kids will love you for it!
