CTG members were busy distributing their money jars
to folks in need. The jars, filled with money saved during the year, were given to a special person in need with the suggestion that if they found themselves in a situation next year to do the same, they should “pay it forward.”

Tuesday, December 20th, 2011Having a blast at our 4th Annual Shop for a Cause!
Saturday, December 3rd, 2011
The ladies of Change Through Giving kicked off the holiday season with our 4th Annual after-hours shopping event on Thursday, November 10 from 6 p.m. to 8.pm. in Winter Park. This year, in addition to Ten Thousand Villages, we had two new stores participating, Markdown Mary’s and Wearable Art. We appreciate the efforts of these stores to give back to the community. We all enjoyed wine, champagne and snacks, plus some great company while shopping for unique gifts, clothes, purses and more! What a fun night! We’re already looking forward to the festivities next year!
A portion of the proceeds benefited PACE Center for Girls. To learn more about this organization, click here.
