RAISING AWARENESS: LUNCH & LEARN
No fundraising ask required — just awareness. Invite friends, coworkers, your church group, or a civic club (Rotary, Lions Club) for a casual lunch. Share your family's craniofacial journey, talk about what FACES offers — medical travel grants, family support, and FACES Camp — and hand out FACES brochures so guests can learn more or pass them along.
How to host one:
-
Pick a casual spot — home, workplace break room, or a community room.
-
Invite 8–15 people; keep it to 30–45 minutes.
-
Contact FACES for a stack of brochures and any photos/handouts to bring.
-
Share your story in your own words — that's the most powerful part.
-
Leave brochures and contact info so guests can follow up.
OTHER AWARENESS IDEAS
-
Table at a health fair, church event, or school open house with FACES brochures.
-
Ask your child's pediatrician or craniofacial team to display brochures in their office.
-
Share your story with a local news outlet or community Facebook group.
-
Share your story on social media with resources from FACES.
