Mission Amarillo @ Mission Amarillo
Feb 29 all-day

There’s a lot going on at Mission Amarillo! First, we would like to announce that our annual spring fundraiser, FamFest will be Saturday, May 18 at Sam Houston Park. There will be around 30 vendors, food trucks, carnival games, and silent auction. It’s always a great time for the entire family and a great way to help us do what we do. Please mark your calendars for Saturday, May 18! We will be taking sponsorships for our Event Sponsors starting March 4.

 

Also, we are continuing to raise funds for our Be-Loved House project. We are making progress towards our goal and hope to begin renovations in the coming months. Residents at Be-Loved House will receive training in various life skills like using a bank, avoiding payday loans and rent to own, learning how to live on a budget, and how to build a credit rating. Ladies can stay in Be-Loved House for up to 2 years. Only 3 months of that will be training and the rest of their time there will be spent putting these lessons into practice. Once their 2 years are over, we will match any money they’ve saved in a savings account up to $2,000. Our goal for all our moms in Be-Loved House is that they will be able to live without the limitations of government assistance when they leave. If you’d like to donate towards renovations, follow this link. https://www.missionamarillo.org/be-loved-house

 

Last of all, our shoe deliveries are continuing to grow at an unprecedented rate. In past years, we typically deliver around 40-50 shoes a month in January and February. This year has been very different. In January, we gave away 120 pairs of shoes and so far in February we have given away 119 pairs! This unexpected demand has lowered our shoe inventory to far lower levels than we have ever experienced this time of year. As of this writing, we currently have 20 sizes with 10 or less in stock, several with fewer than 7. It doesn’t take long for these  inventory numbers to drop to zero. If you would like to collect shoes for us, please follow this link and we will contact you with all the details! https://www.missionamarillo.org/forms/shoe-request

 

Thank you for supporting Mission Amarillo and for helping us love our neighbor and equip them for life!

Learn about Leap Day at DHDC!

Amarillo, TX – The Don Harrington Discovery Center is offering a day of programming, including activities, science demonstrations, Storytimes, and interactions with their leaping animals in observation of Leap Day this year.

Since the Earth takes about 365.25 days to orbit the sun, adding an additional day to February every four years keeps us in sync with the seasons. The years an extra day is added are known as Leap Years and happen on February 29, observed as Leap Day.

This program will go on throughout the day for guests to enjoy. Reservations are not required; the program is included in regular admission or DHDC membership.

Follow DHDC on Facebook and Instagram for more information on their community programs. Information can be found on their website as well.

Thanks!
