Team KC CARE Exceeds Their Goal!

 

 

 

Team KC CARE Clinic has reached their goal of 6,631.00 dollars, which mirrors the total number of unduplicated clients served by the clinic in 2012. However, we are not done yet! It has come to our attention that another team is trying to take our spot as the number three top fundraiser in the Kansas City Area. The Heartland Men’s Chorus, as of 10:30 am this morning, has surpassed us and is trying to hold their lead. It is time to buckle down fundraisers…. and Take Down that Choir! Now is the time to make your last plea on Facebook, Twitter, or other media device for donations for your page. If you are not a fundraiser and want to help: choose a member of our team and donate to their page on Firstgiving at http://www.firstgiving.com/process/teamarea/default.asp?did=1615&teamid=218894.

So Close to Reaching Our Goal

As of 12:00 pm today Team KC CARE Clinic has raised 6,217.14.

We set a goal of raising 6,631 dollars.

Team KC CARE Presents: The Cupcake Diva-Off 2013

 

The results are in for the first ever Cupcake Diva Off.

 

I would like to thank our participating Divas/Divos: Steven Wilson (Chocolate Fudge Rolo Cupcake), Regina Lastiee (Red Velvet with Cheesecake Frosting and Licorice Ribbon),  LaTrischa Miles (Chocolate Surprise and Strawberry Surprise Cupcakes), Hannayd Ruiz (Rose with Almond Frosting Cupcake), and Danielle Tackett (Chocolate Hazelnut Cupcake). I would also like to thank all AIDS Walk members who help to set up and plan this event, especially Courtney Marlin.  And finally your 2013 Cupcake Diva Award winners are:
 

 

                                      Most Moist:                                  LaTrischa Miles

                                      Most Melt In Your Mouth:         LaTrischa Miles

                                   Best Flavor:                                  Hannayd Ruiz 

                                       Best Overall Appearance:           Hannayd Ruiz  

 

 

 

And because we experienced a tie in our competition with two ribbons awarded to LaTrischa and two ribbons awarded to Hannayd. The AIDS Walk Committee was forced to use a tie breaker between the two top cupcakes in the competition. This tie was broken by tallying the total number for votes in all four categories for the Strawberry Surprise Cupcake and Rose with Almond Frosting Cupcake. And the KC CARE Clinic Cupcake Diva for 2013 is:

Hannayd Ruiz  

 

 

 

 

 

 

TEAM KC CARE Presents: Meet the Team at McCoys!

We kicked it off in style this year to get support and excitement rolling into the month leading up to AIDS Walk on April 27th, 2013 in Theis Park.

The KC CARE Clinic AIDS Walk team invited community members to join us for a KC CARE Clinic Team Meet and Greet Happy Hour on Wednesday, March 27. If you were not able to make it.... here is what you missed:


Last year, nearly 4,500 Walkers along with Sponsors and Special Events helped raise over $480,000 for the 5,700 men, women and children living with HIV/AIDS in Kansas City. The Kansas City CARE Clinic is one of the 4 Kansas City AIDS service organizations that benefits from the KC AIDS Walk.

We could not serve our community without the wonderful support of our volunteers. In 2012, 1,286 KC CARE Clinic volunteers donated services valued at more than $1.25 million.

You can join our team at:

http://www.firstgiving.com/process/teamarea/default.asp?did=1615&teamid=218894

• The clinic served 6,631 unduplicated client’s last year, so the AIDS Walk committee has set the challenge of matching that goal. We want to raise at least $6,631.00.


We can't wait for April 27th, and hope to see you March 27th to start the fun!

NO SMASH CAMPAIGN!

I desperately need your help. Please help me with a counter campaign. Unfortunately my staff are raising $100 to sponsor a PIE SMASH. Yep, you heard right. This means if they raise 100 bones, they will smash a pie in my face and it will be broadcast on facebook.

I am highly concerned and fearful. If I raise $200 I can stop this atrocity. Please give a dollar or 20 to save this gorgeous face from being smashed, humiliated, harmed, etc etc.
Every dollar helps.
HELP ME FRIENDS!

Hi, everybody. Thanks for visiting my Personal Fundraising Page. As a therapist with the Kansas City Free Health Clinic, now called the Kansas City CARE Clinic, I've seen just how much can be done to help those living with AIDS. AIDS Walk funnels funds directly to four local services: KC CARE, SAVE Inc., Good Samaritan Project, and Hope Care Center. I've seen the difference these organizations have made in my clients' lives. It's powerful stuff and the people that work at these organizations are nothing short of miracle workers.
