Hi Folks,
It's 2010 and FEBRUARY is SOUP 'n BEANS Drive Contest Month!
Last year YOU donated nearly 9,000 cans of SOUP and BEANS for our
"Senior Food-for-a-Week" 21-Meal Emergency Boxes.
Each meal box contains 3 cans of SOUP and 2 cans of BEANS . . .
multiply that by 550 senior meal boxes each month and you'll see
that we need 1,650 cans of SOUP and 1,100 cans of BEANS every month.
PLEASE help us collect 10,000 cans of SOUP and BEANS in February.
Everyone can help! We have an Adult Competition and a Youth Competition.
Please click here to download the Adult or Youth SOUP 'n BEANS flyer and entry form.
SOUP 'n BEANS Adult Competition is for corporations, businesses, service clubs, churches and individuals. WINNER receives: Six Tickets to "Angel's Day at the Races" in the Del Mar Turf Club in July and a SOUP 'n BEANS trophy.

Thankfully it is a new year! 2009 was a difficult year for everyone including The Angel's Depot, however I am pleased to report that by the end of the year, we had made great fundraising progress. We were very grateful to receive a wonderful $50,000 gift from The California Wellness Foundation (Los Angeles, CA) in October as part of their $150,000 commitment over 3 years. This gift matched the commitment of Harrah's Foundation (Las Vegas, NV) and The Rincon Tribe (Valley Center, CA) At year end, we received an unexpected and much needed $25,000 gift from the Leichtag Foundation. Donor commitments like this make it possible for The Angel's Depot to buy food, supplies, pay warehouse rent, utilities, insurance, transportation and staffing.
"When Angels and Stars Come Out" raised nearly $30,000 on November 21st and we had a fabulous time with Gary Puckett and the Benny Hollman Orchestra! Many thanks to our sponsors: Harrah's Rincon Casino & Resort, BioFilm, Sun Wireless, Anderson Direct Marketing, NRG Energy, The Rincon Tribe, Holiday Travel of America, SONY and Diamond Boutique.
Mark your calendars . . . 2010 "When Angel's & Stars Come Out" is scheduled for Saturday, November 13th at Harrah's Rincon Casino & Resort . . . more to come on the entertainment!

It takes the help of many, willing to give a little each month to feed our 550 needy local seniors each month. Remember, for $25 per month, your name can be on a senior's emergency meal box as their sponsor. Imagine how good a senior will feel to know that someone cared enough about them to sponsor their food box. Please download the S.O.S. Brochure and S.O.S Letter by clicking on them.
As always, I am humbled by YOUR generosity . . . YOU are the wind beneath our WINGS!
