Earlier this month, Valerie Britton (left), a member of Crosswater Club, delivered to MountainStar over $4,000 in early proceeds from the club’s 2007 Birdies 4 Babies fundraising efforts. The proceeds included a check for $2,400 from an anonymous donor!
Valerie, along with Kim Rogers (right), has been instrumental in getting the Birdies 4 Babies fundraiser off the ground at Crosswater Club. Valerie and Kim are both members of STAR (Supporting Those At Risk), a Crosswater-based group of very generous, passionate and creative women. The mission of STAR is to support MountainStar Family Relief Nursery through fundraising and to foster community awareness for its programs. In addition to Birdies 4 Babies, the women of STAR serve as ambassadors for MountainsStar, through:
- DESIGNS FOR DINING: On September 19, 2007, STAR will host the first annual Designs for Dining charity luncheon and auction. The event will take place at the Seventh Mountain Resort in Bend. (For information on the event, e-mail: star@designsfordining.org)
- BIRTHDAY BAGS for children of MountainStar: Every child enrolled in MountainStar’s therapeutic classroom receives a birthday bag filled with gifts hand-selected and donated by the women of STAR.
- CHILDREN'S EXPEDITION SOCIETY: Many members of STAR are also members of MountainStar’s Children Expedition Society, a multiple-year giving program where each member of the society pledges a minimum of $1,000 per year for five years.
