A little update from us! ❤️ Sorry it’s been a minute since I’ve posted!

After very careful review and consideration, we did not select a family this quarter.

We are, however, in the works of some exciting events coming up over the next couple of months, so make sure you save the dates!

🍂 September 26: We’ll be in charge of selling food at Highland Elementary School for the Stillman Valley Fall Fest Car Show!

🎃 October 29: Halloween Trivia at Wayside is back for the 2nd year, but this time we’re adding in a professional to help make the night even more fun!

Stay tuned for more details on both❤️

🚨 NOMINATIONS CLOSE TOMORROW, AUGUST 7🚨

If you've been wondering whether you should apply, this is your sign.

We know asking for help isn't easy. You may be thinking, "Someone else probably needs it more,"or "Mine isn’t that serious”.

Please don't make that decision for us.

If your family is facing a life-changing hardship, we want the opportunity to hear your story. Every nomination is reviewed with compassion and care, and we consider each family's unique circumstances.

Whether you've experienced a serious illness, a tragic loss, a devastating accident, the loss of your home, or another unexpected hardship, we encourage you to submit a nomination.

❤️ You may nominate yourself or a loved one (with their permission).

🔒 All nominations are kept private and reviewed confidentially by our committee. Only the selected family is shared publicly—and only with their approval.

📍 Applicants must live or work within the Meridian 223 District.

📧 Email your nomination to [email protected] with a description of your situation.

🗓 After nominations close on August 7, our committee will review each submission on August 11. Once a family has been selected, we will contact them directly before making any public announcement.

❤️ If this post isn't for you, please share it. Someone in our community may need this opportunity but be afraid to ask for help.
