Sunday the 27th will be our 1st Annual Micah Memorial Birthday Bash and we are so looking forward to being together with everyone to celebrate our Micah Man!
This year Luke & I will be holding a raffle at the 1st Annual Micah Memorial Birthday Bash. The benefits will go to some of our fav places (Children's National Medical Center, Make A Wish & Give Kids the World). This year the majority of the proceeds will be given to Children's National Medical Center, specifically the Hematology/ Oncology Unit (where Mikes was) and also Doctor Bear’s Toy Closet (which provides gifts to the children for their Birthday & Christmas, crafts to do, crayons, movies to watch– it makes life at the hospital much better!). This raffle will in a sense be a small memorial to our Micah. A tangible way to remember his amazing little life, a way for us as a family to never forget and to give back what was generously given to us.
Our hope for this year was a small raffle and well it has totally exceeded our expectations. Many companies have given so generously, and therefore we have great prizes to raffle. So here's how our raffle will work: Everyone will recieve one free raffle ticket and then all raffle tickets will be $1.00 per ticket and 12 tickets for $10.00.
I huge thanks to Barbara at Fairfield Inn, I had asked for a good rate for one night and she gave us 2 for free!
