The House looked “spooktacular” with all of our Halloween decorations hanging from the ceiling and displayed throughout. We had a wonderful group of volunteers who took the time to dress up in costume for the families enjoyment and who also participated in the indoor trick or treating so that families living at the House would not miss out. It was a great time and the little ghosts and goblins were smiling from ear to ear! These dinners are to help rejuvenate the families living at the Ronald McDonald House so that they can continue caring for their sick child. It’s amazing because we set out to do good for others but we and all of our volunteers get so much more out of this… just talking to the families and hearing their stories is so very rewarding. That’s why we like to share this very special night with many and we like to give tours of the House so that people can see that this home away from home is such a calm in the middle of a storm for many of these families. Our job is to make these families feel “Wowed”
if only it is for an hour – they need to feel special so
that a smile can come to their face again! If you would like to
join us for future Ronald McDonald House dinners, please send
Nancy an email at nancy@aubreyrose.org
and she will sign you up for future dinners.
We are very pleased to say that we have given out all 28 skids of the Relia Dose baby bottles that were donated to us. These bottles have gone all over the United States and the world. We had a booth at the Harvest Home Fair where we gave out over 5000 of these wonderful bottles. If we heard this phrase one time, we heard it a thousand times over when people would see the bottle and realize the value of It, they repeatedly said, “I wish I had that when my kids were little.” The unique medical dosing bottle has become invaluable to so many who received our distribution. We have given these bottles to many individuals and over 25 different organizations with the last of the bottles going to Kuwait for our military through Operation Troop Aid and Steel Anchor organization. We’re very excited about this donation and we know that these bottles will definitely help babies in need. It’s that time of the year for our Scholarship Program to get going. We’re very proud to say that we are expanding this program from Catholic grade schools in Cincinnati and adding Catholic grade schools in Boone, Campbell and Kenton Counties in Kentucky and also Catholic schools in Dearborn County in Indiana. We have sent out letters out to the principals of these schools and it’s up to them as to whether they would like to participate in our Scholarship Program. If the school does want to participate, the principal must fill out our form that we sent to them and return it to us by Monday, December 7th. If your school does participate in this Scholarship Program, you can go to http://www.aubreyrose.org/scholarship.htm to print out the scholarship application. We believe that humanity begins in children and their realization of how valuable their actions, words, or even a smile can be toward individual growth and to the everyday well being of the people surrounding them. In memory of Aubrey Rose Hollenkamp, we follow through our mission of carrying out the positive impact she had made on so many people by helping children and families who have also made a positive impact on the people around them. Not only are we increasing the areas for the scholarships
to be given but we are also increasing the number of these awards.
For 2010, we will be giving out 35 scholarships
to deserving individuals who have a kind heart. The
Baja Project & The Faster Pastor Aubrey’s Foundation thinks this is
a natural fit to partner with the Baja Project because our
goal is to put smiles on the faces of many children
and their families. The Baja Project is trying
to do the same thing through their ministry. Message Board "Thank You's" from families On the Aubrey Rose Foundation web site is a message board where families we have helped and others can write messages. We would like to highlight a message on this board:
It’s because of your belief in Aubrey’s Foundation and through your support that we can help families in need with financial, spiritual and emotional support. Having a child who is medically fragile is hard enough but when you add the financial burden on top of everything, that can be quite overwhelming. Our goal is to lessen this burden and to let these families know that people really do care and so giving families grants to help relieve some of the burden can be so uplifting. These families have some of their burden relieved and the better part is that our grant can put a smile on their faces and help to rejuvenate these families so that they can continue caring for their sick child.
