C.A.R.E.
Project Event This Friday…
 Local BHI property
owner, Johnny Sexton, established a nonprofit foundation in the past
couple of years, called The CARE Project. The primary mission of this
foundation is to provide opportunities, materials and emotional
counseling for families with children (or adults) who are deaf or hard of
hearing. CARE received an official 501c3 Public Charity designation in
January, 2011.
In
order to achieve the goals set forth for CARE, which include expanding
materials to help children/families who face disabilities in addition to
deafness, translation of materials into other languages and the
establishment of a living journal, CARE has set out on a fund raising
effort.
If
you are not familiar with The CARE Project, visit their website and take
a look! You may also, click on this link to view a 16 minute short version of the
documentary.
The
CARE Project is now beginning to grow across the U.S. and into an
international community, as it seems to be unique in addressing the grief
and emotions experienced by families. CARE also is providing a great deal
of assistance to the professionals who work with these families.
The first fund raising event is
set for Friday evening, September 23, 2011 in Wilmington, NC. A critical
component of CARE has been the documentary film produced which gives
tremendous insight into family journeys as they process the feelings and
emotions they experience with deafness. The World Premiere of the new feature
documentary, The CARE Project: A Journey To Resilience, will be
the center piece of a wonderful evening of entertainment.
In
order to offset the cost of the event, CARE is seeking sponsors. Click here for information on sponsor opportunities. The
foundation asks that you and/or your agency seriously consider signing on
to make this evening not only possible but a sold out success!! Feel free
to spread the word and share this information with any and all. CARE has
reached 50% of its goal for sponsor assistance and has a ways to go...
The
director, Dr. Sexton, has spent over 33 years working with these very
families and children. “I have been privileged to be a part of so many of
these journeys and have seen the impact of The CARE Project now for at
least two years. CARE needs funding to grow. CARE needs YOU! Please help
us! No gift is too small or too big!”
