I just got back from my vacation with my family and it was amazing! It was so nice to have a break from technology to focus on my family, but now I'm back! Click HERE to read my full review of our Disney Cruise.

Since being back home I have been hard at work completing your #MacKid Fall Event and Activity Guide. There are a ton of fun things happening in South Brevard this Fall Season. I am hoping to have that guide out to you all in next week's newsletter so you can start planning your Fall Fun early! 


🌸 Macaroni Kid Act of Kindness Week 🌸

πŸ”ΉMacaroni Kid Act of Kindness Week is an annual nationwide celebration that encourages families to work together to do good and spread joy through acts of kindness, both big and small.

How?
πŸ”ΉGrab your #mackids and get out and perform an act of kindness for someone in your community. Clean up a park, pay for the customer behind you in the coffee line, or help someone carry their groceries. You can do anything to make a difference in your community.

My MKAOK:

Every year my family and I take part in the Space Coast Walk to End Alzheimers. We walk in honor of my mother-in-law, Tziona, who lost her life to dementia at the early age of 57. This year the walk takes place on September 21st, but we will be collecting donations for the Alzheimer's Association throughout MKAOK Week until October 5th. Please click HERE to join our team or donate!

I was so grateful that the hurricane spared Florida, but my heart breaks for the Bahamas. While we were on the Fantasy, they dropped off supplies for the hurricane victims. You can read more about that here. Disney also donated $1 million to hurricane relief in the Bahamas.

WANNA HELP?

Head over to Gymboree this weekend for Hurricane Relief Open Gym. The cost is $10 per family and all proceeds will go to Direct Relief Organization. They will also be collecting supplies to be sent to the Bahamas until the end of September.




You can also drop-off donations for the Bahamas to Alpizar Law located in Palm Bay.
