Seasons Greetings <<First Name>>,

On behalf of the Raymond Coalition For Youth Staff and Board of Directors, we want to wish you relaxing time with family and friends to enjoy this joyous season.

We also want to thank you for being a part of RCFY and all of our efforts to support our Youth, Families and Community. You are the best GIFT ever to RCFY, and we couldn't do it without you. 

We hope Santa knows how good you are and recognizes you for your dedication and support to the RCFY mission, as we work together to make a difference.

Over the Holiday break you are going to have many opportunities to interact with many individuals, especially young people. Please remember how important prevention is, and that it often starts with a simple conversation.  

Below are some quick updates, along with dates for our 2017 meetings. We look forward to working with you in the New Year and being a source of information, resources and Hope.

Wishing you a Happy & Healthy 2017!

Sincerely,
Celeste Clark
RCFY Executive Director
Please note*** 
The Raymond Coalition For Youth office will be closed for the Christmas break.  We will return on Tuesday, January 3rd.  All emails and phone calls will be returned at that time.

Our Amazing Raymond High School Youth Action members!  They were celebrating and having fun at this weeks meeting. They were able to raise just shy of $60 with their 'Bucks for Binky's' campaign. This money will be used to buy baby supplies to stock the Welfare Departments shelves.



Mark your calendars! Our 4th Annual Fundraising Gala is on March 11th, 2017.
We hope you will join us! We have amazing opportunities to promote your business
through a sponsorship, or by donating a prize or auction item.
We are very much looking forward to a great event, and hope you will be a part of it.

Timely Reflections

They are All Good Kids!  - A special presentation from our friends at the Addiction Policy Forum. Take a moment to check it out and reflect upon it as the Holiday is here. Remember those who might have lost a loved one to the disease of addiction. 

A Christmas Angel in all of us: "You too can be a Christmas Angel, or really an Angel any day of the year, and it won’t even cost you a penny." A lovely piece that Celeste wrote last year, that is still as pertinent as ever. Read it, you'll be glad you did. Thank you for all the ways you are Angels in our community!

 
The Raymond Coalition For Youth
empowers the community to promote positive youth development
and reduce youth substance use, and suicide risk.
