There are several different fun events coming up to benefit some good causes, so I thought that I’d give you a little time to plan.
From Thursday April 14th until Thursday April 28th, the New York State Museum has a special Canstruction exhibition. Ten super-cool designs created with cans, and when the exhibition is over, the cans all go to food pantries. Visitors are encouraged to bring cans along to donate as well.
At noon on April 23rd, people all over will participate in The Great Cloth Diaper Change, hoping to set a world record. Locally it’s led by Sonrise Diaper Service, but it’s also part of a Natural Parenting Expo from 11 am to 2 pm at United Calvary Methodist Church in Latham.
On April 23rd, Danceland in Latham is hosting a fundraising event for Japanese Earthquake Relief from 1-7 pm. Dance, martial arts, and crafts. It’s free, but you better take some money to give.
On Sunday, May 1st, Tree Paad in Malta is hosting a fundraiser for Support One Family, an organization founded by a local mom to support families of children who have vascular malformations. From 10 am until noon, there’s unlimited play, which usually costs $20, available for $12 in advance or $15 at the door. So you save money while feeling all good about yourself for helping families in need.
