This year's Spring Coffee date has been set - April 21st at Bell Shoals Baptist Church.  Please mark your calendars and begin planning the theme for your special table.  Call now to reserve your space  813-689-6889.

The highly successful 4th Annual Spring Coffee was held on May 7, 2011 at Bell Shoals Baptist Church.  This wonderful event is held each year to support the Greater Brandon Community Foundation's Angel Program benefiting families and/or individuals affected by a life threatening disease or catashtrophic event.  Over $4,000 worth of gift cards were raised for the benefit of these families.

Our Spring Coffee began with a little mingling and the availability to purchase tickets for our Chinese Raffle drawings followed by a scrumptious luncheon.  Table hosts were asked to bring 7 guests to their table to enjoy the provided lunch and hear about our Angel Program.  The only charge was that we requested each host and their guests bring a gift card valued at a minimum of $25 to help support our Angel Program.  Each table was decorated with a theme by the individual host/hostess.   Prizes were awared this year to Nola Moon's "Fish Table" for the Most Creative and to Jodi Chadwell for the Most Elegant table. 

All proceeds benefit the Greater Brandon Community Foundation Angel Families in our community.
