Serving Aces for Smiling Faces

There have been some exciting happenings for the Fidelis Foundation since my last post!  First of all we are continuing to serve approximately 30 youth each month!  It is due to the outstanding efforts of our volunteers that we are able to touch the lives of these children.

I wanted to keep you all updated with some of the happenings occurring on an organizational level.  We are seeking accreditation from PATH International. We are hoping this accreditation will help us better assist the youth, increase our likelihood for grants, and improve our community awareness. Jennifer and I will be attending  a conference in November to begin the process.

Lastly, I wanted to invite you all to "Serving Aces for Smiling Faces," a tennis tournament to benefit Fidelis.  The event will take place on November 16th at Prestwick Country Club.  The event will begin in the morning with breakfast provided by Chick-fil-a of Surfside. Following breakfast some of our younger riders will trade their reins for racquets and try some skills on the court!  Following the demonstration, participants will play in a tennis mixer.  Registration is only $25. Following game play, lunch will be held at the clubhouse courtesy of Subway.  Photographs from the tournament will be available for purchase, a 50/50 raffle will be held and a special prize for the winners of the tournament!

Fidelis is currently looking for court sponsorships for this event. Blue ribbon sponsorships are available for $100 and red ribbon sponsorships for $50.  We would like to extend a special thanks to those business who have already committed to sponsoring this event and helping us "Change Lives, One Stride at a Time."
