Collection for Hunger Task Force

Throughout the fair, we will be collecting donations of non-perishable food items for Hunger Task Force. Bring in two items and get a free raffle ticket. A portion of the proceeds from the raffle will go to this worthy cause to benefit needy families here in the Milwaukee area.

Food

There will be a concession stand complete with hot dogs and brats, chips, homemade bakery items, popcorn, nachos & cheese, soda, water, coffee and other assorted lunch food. We have a separate room off of the hall where you will be able to sit and relax away from the bustling fair!

Entertainment Books For Sale

These popular coupon books are coming to St. Therese! They will be on sale all weekend for $35. Hundreds of coupons from local businesses make this book pay for itself after just a few uses. They make great Christmas gifts, as they are valid through November 2010. You can even order one from another region in the country, possibly for as little as $25 (varies by region). If you would like to purchase an Entertainment Book and can't make it to the Craft Fair, please email to request as many copies as you'd like and arrange for pickup. They will be available until the end of the year or until we're sold out!

We Need Your Help!

Monetary Donations

In order to maximize the success of this fundraising event, we would appreciate donations of any amount to put towards the fees for the food and raffle licenses. We also need to purchase the food that we will have for sale on that weekend. If you can help in any way, please send a check to the Parish Office marked "Craft Fair." To donate food, please contact Cathy to find out what we still need. If you would like to donate, but you're not sure what for, please click on the "Volunteer" link in the sidebar at the right to see all the options.

Volunteer

We are in need of numerous volunteers to make this event successful. There's sure to be a job that fits your ability and schedule. To volunteer, please click on the "Volunteer" link in the sidebar at the right.

St. Therese's Own Booth

We know there are a lot of talented people in the St. Therese Community. However, if you don't have enough crafts to fill an entire booth of your own, perhaps you would consider donating an item or two for St. Therese's Booth. This will be a collection of items from people who enjoy crafting, but do not want to run their own booth. What a great way to support your community! All profits from this booth will go to St. Therese. To donate, please click on the "Volunteer" link in the sidebar at the right.

Donate Raffle Items

Do you make afghans or larger craft items? Please consider donating an item to our handmade raffle. A portion of the proceeds from the raffle will go to Hunger Task Force to benefit needy families here in the Milwaukee area. To donate, please click on the "Volunteer" link in the sidebar at the right.
