Newlyweds help support FAVL

| No Comments
While in Québec, I was able to attend the wedding of one of my close friends from college. The wedding was beautiful and a lot of fun. Christine and Doug, the bride and groom, have always been incredibly kind and generous and have donated quite a bit to FAVL. A wedding is the perfect opportunity to be spoiled and receive all kinds of gifts. Though, when I arrived to the reception the first thing  I saw was a large table with FAVL posters and individual cards describing FAVL, the work it does, and asked guests for donations. Later Christine told me that she and Doug would be sending FAVL a check with the donations received. To me, this action only exemplifies the newlyweds' generosity. To Christine and Doug, CONGRATULATIONS and thank you so much for all your support!
