Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. So difficult to not be with all our loved ones butgrateful to be healthy and safe. Better times are surely ahead of us.

December is just around the corner, and it’s time to think about our last fundraiser – END OF YEAR Giving. Can we all get together for one last big push and make this an incredible end of the year event???

Juliette Fowler Encouragement and Hope

Thanks so much for your continued service in our community and the greater Dallas area. We know a few members have expressed interest in serving our most vulnerable older adults living in Dallas County (Texas) long-term care homes (nursing homes and assisted living facilities) during this unprecedented Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Due to the health, safety and welfare of the residents, they are in social isolation – staying in their rooms to avoid disease transmission. In-person visitation from community volunteers is still restricted. Regardless of your geographic location, serving virtually will provide safe social distancing options for your members while still enabling you to enrich the resident’s lives, as well as, the tireless staff taking care of them.

Below are a few ways Dallas Junior Forum can offer encouragement and hope:

Family Place Resale Shop

Posted on November 23, 2020January 5, 2021 by dallasjuniorforum_7gmn6p

The Family Place resale shop is open.

Donate Items. Many clients come to our shelters with nothing but the clothes they are wearing. By donating tangible items you can provide these women, children and men with the supplies they need to rebuild their lives free from abuse. In-Kind donations refer to new items only. Please donate your gently-used items to The Family Place Resale Shop.

Bank Change

Posted on November 23, 2020December 1, 2020 by dallasjuniorforum_7gmn6p

We are moving our checking account to Veritex Community Bank. Why are you telling me this you might ask? We stopped printing checks off the old account September 31. At the end of 2020 we will close the old checking account. If you have any reimbursement checks that have “Capital One, N.A.” at the top, please deposit as soon as possible.
