Davenport, IA? How can purchasing items for your home pay dividends for those in need? Catherine Ross is hosting an online fundraiser and donating 100% of her commissions to the Christian Care Rescue Mission and Domestic Violence Shelter! Being a survivor of domestic violence has fueled her passion for helping organizations like Christian Care that serve the homeless and victims of domestic violence. Not only is she trying to raise funds, she is trying to raise awareness. She hopes to feature a  different shelter each month and eventually expand this event into a nationwide cause. You can help just by spreading the word and getting others involved.

This opportunity ends soon; you will need to place an online order through her website by April 30. If you have any questions, please call Catherine at 563/484-6596 or email her at cmr32186@gmail.com.
