Way to go COALA Members!!

Kudos to all COALA Members and the outstanding participation we had on this year’s School Drive Fundraiser for Positive Tomorrows:

  • We sent Saundra, the volunteer coordinator for Positive Tomorrows, away with over $1,400 in cash and gift card donations as well as an SUV full of school supplies! Thank you all for your support and generosity!
  • Donations can still be made until next Wednesday at Lynn's office.
  • Positive Tomorrows is always in need for volunteers. Contact Saundra or us for more information about opportunities to mentor, chaperone, help with birthday parties, etc.
  • It was really exciting to hear that because of all the generous donors, Positive Tomorrows has purchased land for their new school!! We look forward to hearing more in early 2019!
