Once again this year, I ended up in “jail” to help support Shining Star Children’s Advocacy Center. If you haven’t already done so, please read last year’s blog for background on the event.
As with last year, my bail increased again. Unfortunately, I have not yet made my goal. If you would like to donate and help me to reach it, you can do so here. .
2027 will be Shining Star’s 25th Anniversary. Because of that, I would like to raise a HUGE bail next spring during the 2027 Jail & Bail event (actual event date TBA). To help achieve that goal, I am asking those of you who are currently having to take RMDs (Required Minimum Deductions) from your retirement accounts to consider having a portion of it directed to Shining Star as a chartiable donation to help support my 2027 fundraising event!
If you are able and willing to make a donation from your RMDs, please email me (sscacinmate@gmail.com) for more details and logistics. If you’re not, please watch my main and fundraising socials (@nocrappyexcuses and @sscacinmate) for 2027’s fundraising launch!
Let’s all help raise a LOT of money to support Shining Star’s programs and help the children of Lee & Ogle Counties (IL) whom have been affected by abuse!
