Correction: Christmas Eve Festival on Monday, Dec 24th
The Emmaus House 2012 Holiday Guide indicated that our annual Christmas Eve Festival was scheduled for this Saturday when in fact it is Monday, December 24th. We apologize for any confusion and thank all of our generous donors for their contributions of wrapped gifts. Neighborhood children will receive age appropriate wrapped Christmas presents. Before receiving gifts from Santa and Mrs. Claus, participating families will be treated to storytelling by Akbar Imhotep and a magic show by D”Avante Parks. This has come to be a tradition at Emmaus House that is made possible by the generosity of parishes and individuals throughout the Diocese.
December 6th is GA Gives Day
Join thousands of people across Georgia to raise as much money as possible in 24 hours for nonprofits in our community. Visit www.GAgivesday.org and donate to a nonprofit that means the most to you. Emmaus House is proud to be one of the organizations selected to participate.
EH Kicks Off Digging Deep Campaign
Earlier this month, Emmaus House kicked off its Annual Fund Campaign entitled Digging Deeper. We are excited to announce that as part of the campaign a generous donor will match new gifts and all increases to 2011 Fall gifts to Emmaus House up to $50,000.
This means if you are a new donor to Emmaus House or didn’t make a donation in 2011, your total gift will be matched dollar for dollar.
If you made a gift in Fall 2011, the amount of any increase to your gift in 2012 will be matched. For example, if you donated $100 in 2011 and give $200 in 2012, our donor will match your $100 increase. In either case, every new dollar you give will go twice as far.
During these challenging times, you can help invigorate and sustain Emmaus House through this remarkable opportunity. Donate now by December 31. All gifts are tax-deductible.
