The Garden’s Edge NM Annual Fundraiser
June 18, 2016 @ 4:00 pm - 6:00 pm
Please join us on Saturday, June 18th for our annual fundraiser in Albuquerque, NM!
This year for our fundraiser, we are trying something new to highlight our maternal health and nutrition program. We will be celebrating babies, nutrition, and family, during our event called La Cuarentena: 40 Days to Bring Light.
You will have the opportunity to learn more about our nutrition programming and meet some of our staff and scholarship students who are doing the work on the ground! We will have a small ceremony to bless children based on Maya tradition. We will combine this ceremony with the idea of a Global Baby Shower to honor the babies we work with in Guatemala as well any special children in your own lives.
We invite all of our guests to bring photos of their children, grandchildren, adult children, and families to receive a blessing at the ceremony
Our nutrition team will set up a demonstration of how they conduct health assessments in the villages. There will be healthy snacks from our project to sample and other fun activities.
Big thanks to Fusion Theatre Company and the Cell Theatre for sharing their space with us!
Parking will be available in both lots, north and south of the Cell Theatre.
