A Letter to Potential Donors
Fort Bend Friends and Neighbors (FBFN) Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization whose mission is to advance the education of Fort Bed County students through our scholarship program. In May the Foundation awarded scholarships to ten students who will attend college within Fort Bend County. Since 2005, 99 recipients have received a total of $191,500 in scholarships. Many of our winners are the first in their families to attend college. Their gratitude and record of academic success are indicative of the quality of our program.
The Auction Needs A Few Good Women
Actually, we need a lot of good women to help with the Silent Auction and Marsha's Cafe. It's volunteers who make this fabulous event -- well, fabulous!
