I know I said I was doing all my holiday shopping online and I am, but I will have to venture out to Swoozies on December 4th from 8:00am-10am to help my nearest and dearest favorite charity the Place of Hope. Swoozie's will be donating 10% off all sales to The Place of Hope.

Place: Swoozie's - Downtown at the Gardens
Date: December 4, 2008
Time: 8:00 am - 10:00 am
Location: 11701 Lake Victoria Gardens Avenue, Suite 4104, Palm Beach Gardens, Florida 33410
P: 561.839.1808 | F: 561.839.1806 | PalmBeach@swoozies.com

What is the Place of Hope? It is a faith-based, family style child welfare organization that places children and sibling groups and other special needs ("hard to place") foster children in consistent, long-term care. The Place of Hope provides healthy family care, comprehensive case management, therapy and counseling, tutoring, mentoring, educational, physical and spiritual development, essential life -skills training, healing and restoration. Each cottage has professionally trained live-in cottage parents and no more than 6 children in each home. These parents devote their time, talents and energies to the children, creating a stable and structured traditional family setting. Although the courts determine the length of stay for each child, the Place of Hope provides a stable and loving family home for them until they either attain permanency (family re-unification or adoption) or are of age to live independently.
The A.B. Baby Boutique and my family are big supporters of this wonderful place and we encourage you to learn more about this organization. They are always in need of donations, tutors and mentors. Please consider helping the Place of Hope by shopping with us on Dec. 4th or in your own time. To learn more about the Place of Hope, please visit their website at http://www.placeofhope.com
