WWFEB GARAGE SALE
HUGE SUCCESS!

Garage Sale

The second WWFEB Garage Sale, which was held on May 5th raised $2,600, more than doubling our profits from the first one. We were blessed with a beautiful day, a tremendous amount of donated items for sale, and a crowd of shoppers that began on Friday as we were setting up and they didn't stop coming until we closed on Saturday. This event also allowed us the opportunity to educate the local community about EB. We want to thank all who helped us with the Garage Sale and the many people who donated items for the sale. You made it a success!

Scrapping for EB

WWFEB would like to thank the Scrapbookers who came together for a benefit at the Missionary Church in Yale, MI on Saturday, April 28 th. The event, which was organized by Janet Soper (Carol Thurmond’s sister), raised $415.00 for WWFEB. The day included good food, a silent auction, prizes awarded for “best page,” and many opportunities for sharing ideas and supplies. The video “More Than Skin Deep” was viewed by all in attendance and gave WWFEB the opportunity to educate more people about the devastating effects of EB.
