For today's project, I did a two page digi scrapbook layout of the 
black-tie gangster-inspired New Year's Eve Gala to benefit the Koda Bear Foundation.  

My sisters and their husbands are all very active in the foundation events and I've donated
gift certificates for my photography business for auction at the various events.

The New Year's Eve Gala was another fund raiser for the foundation and my hubby and I attended along with our BFF's Gina & John (in the beige dress) and my crazy sister Becca & her hubby Andrew (in the black dress). 

Here's more info on this wonderful foundation if you are interested in donating or attending an event.



Koda Bear Foundation is a foundation that makes Koda Bears to give to grieving families after the loss of a child while still at the hospital. We donate the bears to the hospital but also sell them to the general public to purchase or sponsor to give to other families. Each bear has a special message on the tag to comfort the families that have just lost their child. 
We use the funds from the bears to make headstones for families who cannot afford one. 
The more bears we can sell the more headstones we can purchase.  All proceeds will go to help our families in need. 
Donations can be mailed to Koda Bear Foundation 420 South Hazel Street Upper Sandusky, Ohio 43351 
or sent through paypal to kodabearfest@gmail.com.
