Les Passees in 2020
Les Passees ~ Good works for Memphis, Good Friends for Life | 2020/21 Theme – Because of the unknown, we did not see one another for a year. Our theme for the year continued to flourish, as did our membership and giving to others!
Harwood – We continued to financially support Harwood‘s families and teachers!
Stock Exchange Fundraiser – We held our first ever online presence for Stock Exchange. It was a lot of work, but it was still worth raising the needed funds for families in Memphis! ~Thank you!
COVID Help for Kids with Les Passees Kids on the Block – “What Kids Need to Know About the Coronavirus” from Les Passees Kids on the Block through Puppet Character, Charlotte and her Puppeteer Barbara Aiello, the Creator Kids on the Block Puppet Program.
