Summer 2011: Friday Harbour kicked off it’s first major fundraising campaign this summer called Friday Beacons.
The Friday Beacons program is a monthly giving program, aimed at securing 100 donors who commit to donating at least $100 dollars per month for a minimum of 12 months.
The funding from this program will go directly to our short-term housing program, where we provide 1-3 nights lodging to cancer patients in need at both MD Anderson and Texas Children’s Cancer Centers.
Friday Beacon donors may can have their donation withdrawn directly from their checking or savings accounts, charged to their credit or debit cards, or send payment monthly by check.
While other donations, gifts and services are welcome, this Friday Beacon program will provide Friday Harbour with the consistent monthly funding necessary to house hundreds of families throughout the year.
We invite you to become a Friday Beacon donor by either clicking the DONATE button above or contacting Brian Hall at 713-504-9557 or brian.hall@fridayharbour.org.
