Southern Delaware is a great place for fundraising events.  Children & Families First has 2 important events to raise funds during the year.  The first one happened to be in May.  I will be sure to let you know next year the information because it was so much fun this year when the event called Brunch & Bubbly was hosted by the Lewes Yacht Club in Lewes, Delaware.

Basically, it was a brunch and shopping event with a percentage of the proceeds going to Children & Families First.  Local shops gathered through the room and guests were able to shops to their hearts delight. In this photo Jane & Georgie is showcased.

You could stop and sip bubbly and have something to eat…meet and chat with others that gathered on a beautiful day in Lewes.  The Lewes Yacht Club outdid itself with great food.  I am showing you this so that you can take a peek at the type of event that Children & Families First offers to the communities of Southern Delaware.
