FTLA Kicks Off New Initiative with an Old Friend
March 9th, 2010
After months of planning, today marks the official launch of FTLA’s 10 Years / 10 Causes initiative, designed to celebrate our 10th anniversary in a unique and socially-driven way. Each month for the next 10 months, FTLA will dedicate a minimum of 10 hours of labor (and in some cases, many more hours) or make a financial contribution to a different Baltimore-area non-profit, culminating in our Big Ten fundraising event.
FTLA has already identified the first 9 causes but with so many great causes out there, we need your help selecting the 10th cause! Vote today and spread the word to your colleagues, friends and family to support your favorite cause by casting their votes no later than April 1.
In the meantime, we encourage you to read more about the recipient of this month’s support: The Baltimore Station (TBS). A client of ours for several years, TBS’ mission is to support men, most of whom are veterans, who are transitioning from the cycle of poverty, substance abuse and homelessness to self-sufficiency. In 2008, FTLA designed a green roof for an addition to the group’s Federal Hill location, and this month, we’ll be doing some replanting to keep the roof healthy, functional and vibrant.
Visit our main 10 Years, 10 Causes page to sign up for updates and photos on this and the other causes we’ll be supporting over the next 10 months. Don’t forget to vote and spread the word. As always, we welcome your comments, feedback and suggestions!
