Lakeland, FL (March 8, 2008) - The primary fundraiser for Talbot House Ministries just took place in Polk County. This million-dollar ministry depends on the “Have a Heart for the Homeless Concert” to provide funds for its night shelter, year-long program, and medical clinic.
The night started off with a silent auction at 6 p.m., and then Rebecca Renfroe, a well-known musical talent, hosted a musical variety show. All proceeds for the event will be used to support the Talbot House and its various ministries.
According to Anthony Fusaro, Director of Development for Talbot House Ministries, this major fundraiser was a success. Fusaro was pleased with the donations received, but was disappointed by the actual crowd present.
“It was one of the smallest crowds we’ve ever had. People donated to the ministry, but they couldn’t make it to the concert,” said Fusaro.
In all, the concert was a success, but you can bet Fusaro and his volunteers will be out to gain a bigger crowd next year.
