Amelia Allen Benefit Final

Hey friends! We’re getting closer to the fundraising events for a new van for the Allens. If you want to participate in the golf tournament, you must RSVP by tomorrow. Also, there will be a wine and cheese reception on October 9—so RSVP for that as well!

Don’t know what I’m talking about? Keep reading.

Our Goal
…It’s our hope and desire to help the Allen Family purchase a van with a wheelchair lift. As Amelia grows up, it has become more of a challenge to lift her in and out of a vehicle. A new wheelchair lift will make going places much easier for the Allens and for all the volunteers who help with Amelia.

How You Can Help
There are three ways you can particpate:
1. Sign up for the “Give Amelia a Lift – Golf Tournament”
2. Join us for the Wine and Cheese Event
3. Make a Financial Donation

Golf Tournament
When : Saturday, October 9th at 10:00 a.m.
Where: Woodland Hills Golf Course – Near Eagle, NE

($55.00 for the green fees are not tax deductible)
RSVP to Andrew at andrew@weekslawpractice.com or call 402.310.6269. Please make checks payable to Redeemer Church with Amelia/Golf in the memo line. – 745 ‘D’ Street, Lincoln, NE 68502.

Wine and Cheese Event
When : Saturday, October 9th at 7:00 p.m.
Where: Rob and Carla Nixon’s Home – 3045 Van Dorn St. Lincoln, NE
The purpose of the Wine and Cheese Event is to raise money for the van, to learn more about families with disabilities, and how we can encourage and support them. There will be an opportunity to make a financial contribution at the event.

Financial Donations
Please make all checks out to Redeemer Church with Amelia in the memo line. Checks can be mailed to Redeemer Church at 745 ‘D’ Street, Lincoln, NE 68502. Our goal is to raise $25,000 to cover the cost of the van and wheelchair lift.
