H.U.D.D.L.E. Program Kicks Off This Fall!

Our BRAND NEW and highly anticipated H.U.D.D.L.E. (Helping Us Develop Dedication, Leadership, and Enthusiasm for Community Service) Youth Leadership Program begins this Fall in Easton Area schools. We are very excited to get this program under way, engaging 8th grade students in learning about leadership, community service, being a role model, and the like.  The program will consist of roughly six sessions in total, with three in the Fall of 2013 and three in the Spring of 2014. As the program reaches the Spring, students will begin brainstorming and devising a community service project of their own for the Athletes C.A.R.E. team to tackle! Be sure to check in as we provide updates on the program as it gets under way!

Award Received: Athletes C.A.R.E. Recognized By City of Easton

On June 9th, 2013, Athletes C.A.R.E. received its first-ever award, being recognized by the City of Easton and Easton Area Neighborhood Center for outstanding service to the Easton Area community following our ‘ALL-OR-NOTHING’ Campaign hosted by WeDidIt. The campaign raised over $6k, all of which was donated to the Roof Over Shelter in downtown Easton to support those in need.  A big ‘Thank You!’ goes to all those involved in the fundraiser, helping raise an incredible amount of money for an incredible cause! Additionally, we’d like to thank the Easton Community as we are honored to have received such an award and we look forward to continued service to the Easton-area.

 

ALL-OR-NOTHING Campaign

This spring, the Athletes C.A.R.E. team has a lot on its plate. In the coming months, the organization will be hosting an ALL-OR-NOTHING Campaign with the goal of raising $1,000 for the Roof Over for Women and Children, a homeless shelter in Allentown, Pennsylvania. Any and all donations will be pending until the $1,000 goal is reached – if the goal is not reached, the donors will be returned their money, and unfortunately, we will not reach our donation goal for the Roof Over shelter.

Here’s how the campaign will work –

We will post our promotional video online to be shared through the various social networking avenues. We will ask that anyone interested in helping, donate to the cause and share the video so that we can receive as much exposure as possible for the campaign. The campaign will last for roughly a two month period with the ultimate goal of raising $1,000 to help the Roof Over for Women and Children purchase the necessary items such as pillows, blankets, bedding, and the like, to further furnish their facilities.

Please look for the video and be sure to share it with friends and family, as well as join the cause by donating to help those in need. The campaign will begin by the end of February, so be on the look out! Thank you all for your help.
