Ottawa Mission Volunteers for Thanksgiving Dinner

Dear members and friends,
 
Join us in contributing to our community.
 
Following a successful event last year, under the umbrella of ECCAO, we are inviting you to volunteer some of your time & money to help the less fortunate people of Ottawa.
 
Upon contacting the Ottawa Mission, the organizers indicated that they are in desperate need for money and help during Thanksgiving Day, Monday October 11, 2009.  They need between 15-20 peoples & enough money to help out with 2400 people who show up for Thanksgiving meals (lunch & supper).  We are currently scheduled for the 2:00 PM to 5:30 shift. Can you join us?
 
We are also looking for your donations to cover Thanksgiving meal costs for the less fortunate. Tax receipts can be issued. 
 
Dr. Mervat El-Tair has generously volunteered to organize this event and collect all donation cheques to deliver to the Ottawa Mission.
 
Please let Dr. El-Tair know, at mervat4529@hotmail.com, ASAP and no later than Saturday September 18 if you are interested in helping out, making donation or both.
 
Give generously; show that you and our community care.  Thank you.
 
ECCAO
