This year was the best year yet for MSF. We maintained all our programs this year. The organization started a blanket drive and we held an anti-bullying event at a LA school. The foundation was also able to increase the amount of individuals helped for Christmas! We couldn’t have done it without you. Thank you for support!

New Year New You

In February, MSF sponsored the event along with the Partnership Against Domestic Violence and Mobile Makeover Matters. During the event, the women were also taught how to make their own jewelry with wire and beads. They were given a makeover class, and makeover kit, along with gift bags filled with beauty products such as lotion, body wash, and body spray.

 

Camille Eden Singleton Blanket Drive

On July 10th, MSF was privileged to present Northside Hospital with needed blankets for the NICU department. The blankets were made by our own MSF member, Linda Singleton. MSF’s donation is in memory of Camille Eden Singleton.

 

Barrow County Back 2 School Bash

Barrow County Family Connections held its annual Back 2 School Bash on July 22nd. An astounding 1,500 book bags filled with school supplies were given away! MSF donated 100 book bags for the event. Our resident volunteer barber, Markus Wingfield (Mark & Company), cut hair for free for the 4th consecutive year. This time he had some help from salon owner, Heather Owens. A No Bullying Campaign was also hosted by MSF. MSF Juniors Deyja Singleton and Ty James manned MSF’s table for the event. The foundation gave away a little over 200 pamphlets, certificates and no bullying bracelets.

 

Louisiana Back to School Events

MSF had the opportunity to host a variety of back to school initiatives in Louisiana on August 4th and 5th. The foundation was able to provide book sacs, schools supplies, care packages and blow pops with inspirational messages to 38 students in need in a community in Baton Rouge. The organization’s next stop was Donaldsonville. Care packages were dropped off to Donaldsonville High and Lowery Middle Schools. At Lowery Elementary, 5th graders received care packages. School supplies and blow pops with inspirational messages were also given to LES.

From (l) to (r): Daryl Comery (Associate Principal), Dr. Charie Worley (Assistant Principal), Yolonda Williams (Counselor), Deon Singleton (MSF), Taniya Jackson (MSF Junior), Cher Singleton (MSF), Dianna Singleton (MSF), DHS Staff Member, Shannon Singleton (MSF) and Marvin Evans (Principal)

LA Anti-Bullying Event

MSF had the honor of hosting an anti-bullying event at Lowery Elementary in Donaldsonville, LA on October 6, 2016. The organization spoke to 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders about bullying and its effects on the victim and the bully. The foundation gave away anti-bullying bracelets, butterfly pendants, and bookmarks to all students. The students also had chances to win MSF T-shirts for correctly answering anti-bullying trivia questions. MSF challenged the students to reduce bullying by the end of the school year. If they succeed, MSF promised the students a pizza party! 

 

PADV Thanksgiving Events

On November 5 & 12 of 2016, MSF hosted the 4th annual What I am Thankful For dinner event for PADV shelters. The foundation cooked dinner which included: Turkey Meatballs – BBQ and brown gravy, mac & cheese, spaghetti squash (veggie dish), cabbage, corn bread muffins, stuffing, mini cakes and apple crisp pie and drinks. We also created What I am Thankful For turkeys with the clients and provided a variety of calendars and inspirational books. Entertainment was provided by One Voice One Sound of the New Mercies Christian Church Choir.
