Awareness and Fundraising
Please join us on December 2 from 7pm-9:30pm at High Wire Girls--a unique gift store with great holiday gifts and prices. They will donate 10% of every purchase back to FORCE. Additionally, they'll raffle off jewelry for a year and provide other fun purchase incentives. Join us for wine and desserts with absolutely no obligation to buy anything. Please share this with your friends and family so we can make this a great fundraiser!
