For several years now, CCFR Community Outreach has participated in the Big Kahuna Bartender Challenge, a fundraiser to support Community Living. Serving over 1,100 children, adults, and their families, Community Living is a local non-profit that works to enrich the lives of people with disabilities so they can achieve their highest potential. Check them out at www.communitylivingmo.org
Every Christmas, we support area children by serving as a collection point for community donations of Christmas presents. In addition to the Toys-for-Tats event where we collect toys, Santa makes a visit to the firehouse for pictures and a visit with children and their families. We accept new, unwrapped toys to be donated to the Foster Adoption Support Team (FAST). Fast supports over 300 foster/adoptive children throughout St. Charles county. We also adopt area families, providing Christmas presents for the the children and a meal for the family for Christmas day. To support this cause with a financial donation, please donate below.
F.A.S.T. provides support and resources for families of children in foster care in St. Charles county, and we partner with a local business - Permanent Vacation Tattoo - to provide an estimated $6,000 in toys every year. For more information about the work FAST is doing, visit www.fosteradoptscc.org/
No child should have to go without a coat! Working with the elementary schools in our fire district to identify children in need of cold-weather clothing, we meet the need…no matter the number of kids needing help.
