December is a month of generosity. People stop and think about who has poured into their lives, and we are thankful for these many gifts. We turn our thoughts to charitable giving too and to end of year donations and such. Country Coach Friends has a spirit of giving all year round. Rally fundraising for a cause is one aspect of this club for which I am most proud to be a part. We choose a charitable organization for each rally and we bring baskets and quality items to raffle at the charity auction held wherever we gather. It is a fun time! Helping wounded veterans, families, children who have needs for the basic necessities of life which we ourselves have been so richly blessed, it is a rally tradition that shines a light on what is right in this world. Good people helping good people who have genuine needs.
One of the organizations that is a club tradition for our annual Friendship Rally is Junction City Local Aid. In their most recent newsletter we read that JCLA was recognized as one of the 100 Best Nonprofits to Work for in Oregon by Oregon Business Magazine. They also received the Justice of Eating Award from Food for Lane County—recognizing distinguished contributions to hunger relief by partnering agencies in Lane county! Country Coach Friends Incorporated, thank you all, for your part in this mission of giving at JCLA right there in Junction City, Oregon, the club’s homebase, and where all Country Coach Motorhomes were originally built (and for your help to Dogs for Veterans, Wounded Warriors, and many other fine charities we have supported through CCFI rally giving through the years). We look forward to another year of sharing from our abundance through rally giving!
