Priest River Ministries Advocates for Women

To support women and children in need, we at Priest River Ministries-Advocates for Women are raffling off a brand new, unopened Acer Netbook. Raffle tickets can be purchased at $2 a piece, or three for $5. The raffle will be held in June.

You can purchase tickets in several ways. The easiest is to go to our facebook page, facebook.com/prmadvocatesforwomen, and use the FundRazr tool to donate.

You can also call the office during business hours Mon-Fri, 1-5 at 208-448-2800, and leave a message with the receptionist. If you utilize either of these options, we will mail you your ticket and keep it on file here.

Or, if you are in the Priest River area, stop by the Rivertown Mall during business hours, and purchase a ticket in person.

All donations will directly benefit women and children who are affected by domestic violence and need access to emergency or long-term shelter, advocacy, legal aid, support groups, and much more.

This Saturday, Priest River Ministries will be participating in the All-Town Garage Sale. We will be at the Rivertown Mall from 9-4 selling hot dogs, drinks, and other items people donate for us to sell. Bring your gently-used items or drop by to say hello, and have a blessed day.

Have an extra high-chair in storage? We need another high-chair for our childcare room. Let us know if you have one we can use, or drop it by during our office hours, Monday-Friday, 1-5.

PRM Advocates for Women now has an advocate available on Tuesdays in Spirit Lake from 10-12 at the Spirit Lake Coffee & Book Shop, as well as in Sandpoint from 9-12 at A New Hope Social Services, located at 312 S. First Ave. We will offer guidance, advocacy, and emergency services. Please share with anyone who may be in need and have a blessed day.

Mark your calendar for June 23, 2012. Our 1st Annual Celebrate Family Fun Run will happen that morning, and it will be fun for serious runners, casual walkers and joggers, and parents with strollers. Click through to celebratefamilyfunrun.com to find out all the details. Many thanks to Linda, Donna, and Nick for all their hard work! There will be opportunities for volunteers to help manage the run, for those who don’t wish to walk or run. Give us a call if you need more information.
