> Dear Friend of FIC,

> Are you artistically inclined? Want to expand the audience for your  
> art or craft? Interested in supporting FIC’s mission? FIC is now  
> planning its first ever Holiday Arts and Crafts Fundraiser, and  
> we’re calling on all artists and craftspeople in our community to  
> participate!
>
>
>
> We are looking for jewelry, clothing, photography, pottery, prints,  
> sculpture, wood carvings, fiber arts and more. Do you have work you  
> would like to contribute? How about your family members, friends or  
> colleagues? Perhaps you know a local professional artist who would  
> like to participate and support our work?
>
>
>
> The fundraiser will take place at FIC on the afternoon of Sunday,  
> December 2, 2007 during prime shopping season, and will be  
> publicized to over 15,000 people in the FIC community, as well as  
> in local newspapers. For our alumni, this will be a great time to  
> reconnect with FIC faculty and fellow students, enjoy some holiday  
> cheer and perhaps discover one another’s hidden artistic talents.  
> So even if you and your circle are not artistically inclined,  
> please save the date!
>

>
> The displaying artists will be asked to donate 50% of their  
> proceeds to the Institute. We will also run a Silent Auction.  
> Anyone who is interested is welcome to donate artwork or other  
> items of interest to the auction, the proceeds of which will go to  
> FIC. The funds from this benefit will support FIC’s mission. As you  
> know, we improve the lives of vulnerable families by ensuring that  
> the people committed to helping those families have access to the  
> best possible training. In a time of decreasing resources for  
> workers and agencies, FIC has increased its student scholarships  
> and agency subsidies which come directly off of our bottom line and  
> must be raised through donations.
>

>
> If you or someone you know would like to participate in our Holiday  
> Fundraiser, please send an email message to  
> info at familyinstitutecamb.org by Monday, October 15 with the  
> following information:
