Message from the President
Marilyn Blake, President
As this year comes to an end, I find myself thankful for having been able to serve as President of Central Coast Funds for Children. I am fortunate to be in the company of such dedicated, hardworking, committed, and compassionate women.
I joined this group of women eleven years ago because I liked what the organization stands for “Raising funds for children in need in San Luis Obispo County."
Indeed, all the money
raised stays in our county. We have raised over $100,000 this year and will have donated over $2 million in funds since 1994.
Our fundraiser alone raised over $64,000 this year through the hard work of our members. Thousands of children in San Luis Obispo benefit from these monies.
This group of women who call themselves CCFC is very inspirational and I’m proud to be a part of this organization.
