friends helping Friends BRING ANYA HOME

Dear friends,

As you probably know, for the last two years, Kathy & Marty Friend have been on a rollercoaster adventure to adopt this precious little girl, Anya, from an orphanage in Irkutsk, Russian. The good news is that they are getting closer and closer to their dream of bringing little Anya home.

The bad news is that the Friends just learned that they need to send a fairly large amount of money to Russia the first week of September to keep the momentum going and not delay the proceedings any further.

To help our friends, the Friends, bring their little girl home, Kelly Miller has graciously offered the use of Lucy's Rhythm Room for a fundraiser this Wednesday night, August 30, from 5:30 - 9:00 p.m.

Kelly's vendors have donated wine and appetizers and we'll have all kinds of opportunities for you to make contributions to help our friends, Kathy & Marty Friend Bring Anya Home
Cash donations of any size will be gratefully accepted. In addition, we will have silent auctions, raffles and other ways for you to have fun while contributing to this very worthwhile cause.

We look forward to seeing you on the 30th!
Kathy Strukel Pam Homan & Kelly Miller
