Little Sisters’ Annual Rock-A-Thon Promises
Fun, Food, and Rocking for a Good Cause
The Little Sisters of the Poor will have their annual Rock-A-Thon Sunday, March 4 from 12-4 p.m. in the auditorium of Holy Family Residence, 2500 Adams Ave., Scranton, adjacent to Marywood University. Individuals, youth groups, and other organizations are invited to form teams and garner sponsors to join in the fun and rock the afternoon away with the residents. In addition to rocking, participants will enjoy food, music, dancing, and karaoke. There will also be additional food and homemade baked goods for sale for a nominal fee as well as a gift basket and gift card raffle. The Little Sisters will award prizes to the top three teams which raise the most funds as well as to the team with the best decorated rocking chair.
Anyone who would like to participate or make a donation to this important fundraiser should contact Mrs. Jackie Galvin, director of development and communications, at (570) 343-4065 or scdevelopment@littlesistersofthepoor.org by Friday, February 24.
