How To Help

OPERATION JOY

Even though things have been hard, God always answers my prayers. Thank you for being one of those answers... One day when I am on my feet, I hope I can bring some joy to another family that is in need. I will never forget the ANGELS at Christmas!

Operation Joy, Child and Family Focus, Inc. (CFF)'s annual fundraiser, is into its 9th year of providing support! 100% of the monetary and material donations received through Operation Joy are used to support local families in need during the holidays, and at crucial times of the year.

In 2009 alone, Operation Joy helped 800 individuals, which included all past and present families in need that CFF had served to date, each having one or more children with emotional or behavioral disorders. Operation Joy has spurred on such an outpouring of support, that CFF has been able to extend help to local families at domestic violence shelters and residential centers as well.

Please join CFF in supporting families through Operation Joy, by giving toward one of the following:

AUTISM FUND supports families that have children with autism.
2010-2011 Goal: To raise $7500

ADOPT-A-FAMILY for Christmas by purchasing gifts from Wish Lists.

MOM'S RETREAT

CFF is pleased to have had three successful Mom’s Rejuvenation Retreats in 2006, 2007 and 2009! Each year CFF Moms have been treated to a relaxing, refreshing, rejuvenating time at the National Christian Conference Center in Valley Forge, PA in the early fall. The retreats are open to all Moms who have a child or children with special needs. Our second year we more than doubled our attendance. Plans are being made now for the Annual Mom's Rejuvenation Retreat in the fall of 2011.

You can help CFF continue this much needed weekend by donating:

  • Gifts for the Moms
  • Pampering items
  • Pampering services
  • Financial support

We charge our Moms a minimal registration fee and use donations and fundraising to support the balance of the retreat. We are thrilled to have been able to offer scholarships to a few Moms who could not attend without financial assistance!
