Caring for a Cause


Dear Local Merchant,

We are a Non Profit Organization, Caring for a Cause that reaches out to local families in need.  We began back in November of 2010 by helping out a 2nd grader Maddie Briscoe from Ola Elementary that is fighting Stage 4 Neuroblastoma.  We held a baseball tournament and raised nearly $27,000.00.  Since we have helped many other local families raising over $135,000.00. 

We are currently helping 3 other local children.

Maggi Blair of Stockbridge was born with Trisomy 9 Mosaci Syndrome.  We will be hosting an Evening on the Farm on June 16th at Southern Belle Farms in McDonough to help with her medical expenses.  This night will consist of a live auction and a catered dinner.  We are in need of auction items for this event.  We will have t shirts for this event any donation of $200.00 or more your business logo will go on the back of the shirt. Any other donations you will be on the event banner.

Micah Richardson and Thomas Jolley will be the recipients of Miracles in the Making.  Micah is an 8 month old baby boy that stopped breathing on New Year’s Eve.  It has been called a near SIDS event.  Where he is a living miracle having been without oxygen for an hour we want to help his family see another miracle.  Micah has been left paralyzed from the waist down and has severe brain damage.  He is a prime candidate for Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber treatments and this is what the money raised will go towards. Thomas has been diagnosed with several very rare congenital syndromes in the months since he was born.  He has Duane syndrome effecting his eyes, Klippel Feil Syndrome (fused neck vertebrae), Congenital scoliosis including both hemivertebrae and butterfly vertebrae in his spine, low muscle tone, heart murmur and a couple of other minor things.  At this time they are calling is Wildervanck Syndrome, which at most has a paragraph of information on the Internet and in any physician’s books that we have met. The money raised will be to help give Thomas the best medical care he can receive. This event will be held Saturday June 23rd.  It will be a Summer Festival and Corn Hole Tournament at Padres in Locust Grove. We will also have t shirts for this event.  Any donations of $300.00 or more your business logo will go on the back of the shirt, set up a booth at the event and be on the banner.  All other donations will be on the event banner.

If you would like to be involved with both events we have options for sponsorships below.
