Table of Friends was a great success. The Dalles community raised over $18,000 to help prevent child abuse. That’s almost twice what the event grossed last year. Thanks so much to all the chefs, sponsors, guests, helpers, musicians and cooks!
The good news is that child abuse is preventable. The hard truth is that preventing child abuse requires an investment of both time and money. More in Janet’s newsletter, Good Things Happen Every Day.

What could be better than a fundraiser that’s 99% pure fun? Bowl For Kids’ Sake on Saturday, March 10 was the best event ever.
More than 50 teams competed to raise donations that pay for over a third of the Big Brothers Big Sisters budget. The best part was when the Bigs and Littles showed up at 4 pm to bowl. Or maybe the best part was the pizza. Or the laughing. Let’s just say, a good time was had by all.
