The New Jersey State Organization of Cystic Fibrosis is requesting your support as a volunteer Host/Hostess for our annual "Make Believe" Mother's Day Tea Party. Your valuable time can help make this important fundraising event a tremendous success, and enable us to continue our "hands on" assistance to cystic fibrosis patients throughout the State of New Jersey.

Our annual "Make-Believe" Mother's Day Tea is a simple concept that can bring much needed funds to the Organization. Even if you only know five people to send the Mother's Day Tea Invitation to it would help tremendously.

How does it work? NJSOCF will send you the invitations, mailing envelopes, return envelopes and tea bags. You will then address them to relatives and friends, inviting them to enjoy a cup of tea, wherever they may be on Mother's Day, and to think about the children and adults living with Cystic Fibrosis. They can then consider sending a donation for direct patient services to help CF patients throughout the State of New Jersey.

It's simple-Can we count on you? Please let us know as soon as possible. You can call us at 973-595-1232 or email das@njsocf.org.

Thanks! We really need your help!
