Want to participate?

Hello everyone,
I don't know if you all know that I am here in Idaho for a couple of weeks with my daughter, Chyrisa. The reason I am here is to assist her in her efforts to remember her son Mark, who passed away in Oct. 2006. Mark's birthday is on May 23rd (he would have been 24 this year) and Chyrisa is having a memorial/fundraiser in Mark's name and for the Valley Crisis Center in Nampa, ID. Chyrisa has a fundraiser twice a year, on Mark's birthday and the day he passed away. It is always very sad but what better way is there to honor the one you love with this act of kindness which she passes on to others. SHE IS AWESOME!!!

You can participate if you would like to. Any donations can be made to Mark Ellis Memorial Fund in care of Chyrisa Quincy, 2818 S. Royal Meadows Drive, Nampa, Id 83686 or Valley Crises Center also in care of Chyrisa.

We are having three tables set up on the 23rd & 24th - we will be making gift baskets to raffle off, we will be selling root beer floats and I am donating some crystal bracelets for raffling. Chyrisa will be doing some caricatures drawings. We have contacted about 6 vendors from where Chyrisa 's work, (Albertson's) for donations and they all said yes anything they can do. So we are on the hunt for more donations. We would like this to be successful. Check out Valley Crisis Center on the web.
