Cubs For Kids is a children’s outreach club that was recently formed by The Bridgehampton Lions Club to help our children make a difference in the lives of other kids. The group just held a very successful bake sale to raise money for the earthquake victims in Haiti.
Seven “Cubs” and their friends, twelve in all, baked cookies and cakes on Saturday and spent all of Sunday at Kathryn and Doug DeGroot’s Buckskill Winter Club selling them. Thanks to a bit of baking guidance from the mothers, a wonderful location, (the skating rink was packed!) and a very generous outpouring of support, the Cubs raised $934.00!
On Monday morning $1000.00 was sent, in their name, to Partners In Health, a relief organization that has been running health clinics in Haiti for twenty years. Located in rural areas, most of their clinics survived the devastation and are now playing a vital role helping the injured who are streaming out of the badly damaged Port-au-Prince.
Cubs For Kids Serve Too!
