Join
CHPA at the 2008 Annual Conference
and
help support the local chapter of the non-profit charity STANDUP
FOR KIDS!
This
year, CHPA will have multiple fundraising events for STANDUP FOR
KIDS. With your help and support, CHPA can provide much needed
supplies and donations to assist the charity in helping homeless,
at-risk youth and street kids in Las Vegas.
About
StandUp For Kids:
STANDUP
FOR KIDS is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization founded in 1990
to help rescue homeless and at-risk youth. With national headquarters
in Houston, Texas, STANDUP FOR KIDS is run
almost entirely by volunteers, and has established
more than thirty outreach programs in fifteen states. There
are more than 7,000 volunteers nationwide dedicated to the rescue
of homeless and street kids. STANDUP FOR KIDS has been recognized
for excellence by the White House, the U.S. Justice Department,
and various other organizations and offices. STANDUP FOR KIDS NEEDS
YOUR HELP! Both in serving the kids already on the streets
in Las Vegas and in preventing more kids from running to the streets.
Leaders
from STANDUP FOR KIDS have committed to attending our charitable
events and will be on hand to receive the donations that CHPA Members
have raised.
Three
Ways You Can Help:
CHPA
is offering three different ways members can help STANDUP FOR KIDS.
We encourage you to participate in one of these events or all of
them if you are able. Your donations are tax deductible and
you will be given a receipt.
CHPA
Fun Run/Walk
On
Tuesday, February 19, at 6:30 a.m., a Fun Run/Walk has been scheduled.
The entrance fee is $25 and this includes a T-shirt and your participation
in the run/walk. All proceeds from the entrance fee will be
donated to STANDUP FOR KIDS. This is a good way to get up
in the morning and get energized for the conference. Begriming
and ending at The Lodge (JW Marriott Spa), the Fun Run/Walk will
wind among the palm-lined gardens, expansive green lawns and interwoven
streams. Whether by pool or flower-lined garden path, the
JW Marriott Las Vegas Resort offers 54 acres of luxurious settings
for our Fun Run/Walk. Please pre-register for this event by
filling out the waiver form and registration form with payment.
You may register on-site for this event as well. You
will receive a receipt for your donation for your records and tax
purposes. View the property
map of the JW Marriott Resort.

Tower
of Excellence Awards Event - Memories for Sale
On
Wednesday, February 20, while celebrating your successes and those
of your peers, you will have the opportunity to purchase images
shot by a professional photographer of people and events at this
year's conference. A professional photographer will be on
hand to shoot candid images at various events during the conference.
These images will be available for purchase and all proceeds will
be donated directly to STANDUP FOR KIDS. CHPA Staff will also
be on hand to take orders if purchasing multiple prints. Again,
your donations are tax deductible and you will be given a receipt
for your records and tax purposes.
Donations
If
you are unable to participate in any of the above events, please
consider making
a donation on behalf of yourself or your company. Any amount
will help the at-risk youth of Las Vegas and STANDUP FOR KIDS.
This organization is very excited to have CHPA supporting their
cause and we would like to do whatever we can to help them reach
their goals.
