Outreach 

In 2005, we formed our Community Outreach Committee to identify local not for profit organizations in need of assistance.  Our objective was to make an impact by supporting the needs of a small number of specific charitable programs.  

We are a powerful group of women who have fun and give back to the community in an effective and organized manner and we hope that you will help us to fulfill our mission:

"To assist charitable organizations and families in the St. Augustine area, through volunteering time, service and/or providing financial support."

 For this 2011-2012 season we will work with: 

  •     St. Augustine Youth Services (SAYS) 
  •     Sunshine Center (COA)
  •     St. Gerard Campus
  •     Emergency Services and Homeless Coalition of St. John's County (ESHC) 
  •     Betty Griffin House Sexual Assault Recovery Program
  •      Goliath & Bebe's World
  •     Artbreakers 

St. Augustine Youth Services (SAYS) provides services to boys ages 6-18 who are in need of residential therapeutic services due to abuse and or neglect.
