You are invited to a Popsicle Party FUNdraiser for refugees on August 8th at 5:30 PM at Veterans Memorial Park, which is located at 1645 23rd Street in Bettendorf, Iowa.

This family-friendly event is an opportunity to share summer fun and cold treats with open-hearted people like you, while expressing solidarity with refugees across the globe.

With even the smallest donation, you can participate in a grassroots movement to collect 1 penny for each of the 70.8 million people in our world right now, who have been forced to leave their country due to war, persecution or natural disaster. Learn more at https://uniteinprayer.org/refugee-outreach/

Or you can contribute directly to this essential cause here: https://www.crowdrise.com/o/en/campaign/pennies-for-refugees.

Better yet, pack up your family and your change jar that has been collecting dust, and show up to the popsicle party! It is going to be a fun night. If you donate in advance, just show your e-receipt at the event – you’re all set for some cool treats and fun.

At 6:30, there will be a brief opportunity to Unite in Prayer for those, who have been forced to leave their country, due to war, persecution or natural disaster.

Thanks in advance for your support:) I hope to see you there!

A special thanks to Saint Paul the Apostle Catholic Church and Tom Brooke with Thrivent Financial for sponsoring this event, so all proceeds can go directly to those in need.
