Help Bring Smiles to At-Risk Children this Fall!

Hi, I’m Mia Flores, a Business Administration student at McLennan Community College in Waco, TX. This semester, I’m part of an amazing project that I’d love your help with! My team and I are organizing a fall carnival for the wonderful children at Talitha Koum Institute—a place dedicated to providing early childhood mental health and therapeutic support to at-risk kids.

Our mission is to create a night full of laughter, joy, and unforgettable memories. But we need your help to make it happen! My fundraising team is working hard to raise money to cover all the essentials: food, drinks, carnival games, prizes, and decorations. Every dollar you donate will directly impact the event, helping us create a magical night for these children who truly deserve it.

Event Date: Monday, November 25

How You Can Help: Your donation—big or small—will help us bring smiles, fun, and excitement to these kids. The more we raise, the more amazing experiences we can provide for them!

By the way, "Talitha Koum" comes from the ancient Aramaic language and means "My Child, rise up!"—inspiring words that reflect the hope and second chances this institute offers to so many children.

Thank you so much for your kindness and support. Let’s make this carnival one to remember!
