Abingdon Fire Company Adopts Arrow Point Child

We would be thankful if you could place the flyer in your place of buisness.

Abingdon Fire Company has adopted Arrow Point Girls Home for the Holidays this year and for future years to come.  As a Company we are blessed for the support our community gives us which allows us to continue to grow in our organization and support the needs of the community.  It is important to us to "Pay it Forward" to those who need our support as well.  Arrow Point Girls home is a residential facility located in Harford County.  The girls living there are foster teens who are getting close to "aging out" of the foster care system.  The organization allows these young women to prepare themselves for future endeavors on their own when the time comes.  Our sponsored event runs from November 1, 2011 through December 18, 2011, this will allow us as a company and community as a whole to ensure the girls have a wonderful Christmas and implements plenty of time for all of us to come together to make this year their best Christmas ever.  On behalf of Abingdon Fire Company, we would like to invite anyone to help make this a success for our adopted family.  Please bring all items to the following locations:
