$100k? Zippity Yay!
Wednesday, May 22nd, we made history. We handed Friends of Children's Hospital a check - for $100,000. That's a record donation because of people like you. In the three year history of Fondren's Zippity Doo Dah® Weekend, this is the most money that we have ever raised.
It's kind of funny how it all came together - the final amount at least! Read a feature story here from Find It In Fondren.
A very special thanks to each and every person who put even one ounce of time, energy, talent or resources into this year's event. You truly are a special group of people and we could never say thanks enough. We appreciate you, but moreover, the children and families of Blair E. Batson Hospital for Children thank you.
Zippity Yay!
