Charity:
Edmarc Hospice for Children

What is EDMARC?
About EDMARC: Established in 1978, Edmarc Hospice for Children was the first hospice in the nation designed specifically for children. They are a United Way agency, serving children with life-limiting illness and their families, without regard to their ability to pay for services. Edmarc believes that remaining at home helps alleviate some of the child’s stress. They offer a broad range of services to address not only the physical and emotional needs of the child, but the many needs of their families. Their home health, hospice, and bereavement support services are available to children and families 24/7.

How YOU can help:
We are looking for sponsors, as well as, organizations to help raise money or much needed donations for the event. There's a long list of needs for Edmarc and despite the economy, we believe that people are still able to donate services or their free time to help others, when their money is tight. We are doing this without any funding. We are using our own money to put together this show and are not getting paid for organizing this event. All proceeds are going to the charity. We have an army of local volunteers who are donating their free time to help paint, set up, build, and organize the show along side us. It is not just our show, it's the communities show. Edmarc is there for the 7 Cities families that need the help and assistance for their sick child and bereavement, despite their lack of income or money.

WE NEED FOOD DONATIONS FOR THE EVENT NIGHT. Work at a restaurant? Know someone who can cook? You can have it all written off on your taxes because you're helping a charity and helping us! We need finger foods (sandwiches, dips, deserts, simple and easy things), & drinks (bottled water, canned soda).

EDMARC NEEDS DONATIONS. Money or gift certificates for services. Wanna help? Send us your email and we'll send you the list of items Edmarc needs. Some examples are: haircuts, manicures, pedicures, gas cards, grocery store cards, free movie rentals, gift cards to restaurants for the parents, passes to local museums and entertainment spots)
