Calling the Community!!!!!!

Camp Caglewood is headed out again - but this time our amazing group is heading south of the Georgia border to see Cinderella and all of her friends!!! Our 'special friends' have been talking about this trip since February and most of them have NEVER been, stepped foot near Disney, or even dreamed of being able to go to the magical place. This is a once in a lifetime experience for our special friends - and THEY DESERVE IT to the 1 millionth degree!!

Our friends are so selfless, loving, and such amazing people - it is about time we take off to celebrate their amazingness and there is no better place to do it than Walt Disney World. But along with this celebration comes great costs. Our organization has been effected greatly by the fall of the economy, as have most other organizations, and our fundraising and giving has been cut in half this year.

I, along with all of our other volunteers, am seeking for others that would like to make a donation to our amazing trip coming up or just to our organization as a whole. Because our staff, board members, and committee members (EVERYONE) are all volunteer - you KNOW that your money goes completely to our trip and programming!! Even $10 will make a huge difference - 4 more gallons of gas to get to Disney!!!

Visit here to donate:
