| We raise 45% of funds for adequate legal counsel for children of child sexual assault; as well as raise 45% of funds for police internet sting operation against pedophiles; 10% for operational cost.. We also raise awareness about child sexual assault through our community education and prevention program. Our first fund raiser is a bake sale/ cooking competition between ages 6-10, 11-14, 15-18. They can cook anything as long as it is in good taste. They will be judged upon texture, taste, presentation, and creativity. Baked goods will be for sale. We will also have educational materials, finger print id kits, and netsmartz cards. In June, FACSA's fund raiser is Broken Bats for Broken Hearts. Major league Baseball teams will sign their broken bats, to be auctioned from our website. Proceeds from this fund raiser will be donated to the National Crime Victims Law Institute. They are a national program that have pro bono legal clinics for victims, provide technical assistance to victim's rights attorney's nationwide, conduct nationwide trainings, file amicus curiae (friend of the court) briefs, and sponsor the National Alliance of Victims' Rights Attorneys. The NAVRA is an alliance of attorneys and advocates committed to the protection, enforcement, and advancement of victims rights. The NCVLI is supporting the NAVRA as it grows in memebership, with the hope that one day every victim can access a free attorney, that can serve them as well as the highest paid attorneys. We received an autographed baseball from LSU Tigers, Coach Mainieri and an autographed baseball from the Texas Rangers which will go on our site to be auctioned next week. As the sports memorabelia comes in, it will be posted for auction. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220463413802 On Sept. 12, '09 , FACSA is hosting Impact Springhill Day . We are asking organizations in our community to donate your time and talents to support your community; also we need a list of people in your churches, as well as organizations that need help that day. While volunteers can spend the day helping the Fuller Center, for individuals the volunteers can not stay longer than 2 or 3 hours. There will be many that will benefit from the Impact Springhill day. No one is paid, it is all volunteer. If you can do plumbing, electrical work, wash a car, cook, mow, rake, etc... we need you. It is the community helping the community. We will meet for breakfast and prayer at the United Methodist Church, at 6am, back for a potluck lunch between 11-2(as the volunteer workers come in), a fish fry for dinner, and a band in the park for all the community. In Ocotober 8, FACSA is hosting a Legends Ball for Webster Fuller Center. FACSA is affiliated with the Webster Fuller Center, who will build low income homes, as well as homes for our graduates upon leaving the FACSA Center. As successful graduates maintaining FACSA requirements, they will have the option to buy the home and apply the first annual rent paid in, toward home ownership. FACSA requirements are that the graduate and their family remain out of abusive relationships, drug free, and employed. If they lose their job, we will help them find employment. Helping them to become successful will help some children who might end up on the street, in jail, or dead, have a chance in life; and could possibly be their only hope. FACSA is gathering child sexual assault organizations from across the nation, to show unilateral support against child sexual assault. We are meeting in Washington D.C., November 14, 2009, at 10:00 am, in front of the Lincoln Monument, Reflecting Pool. We feel organizations have serviced their communities diligently, but now it is time for community to help community; Americans to help Americans; and for us all to become FACSAinians for one day. By coming together as a collaborative effort, we will be able to change the stigma of child sexual assault, public opinion, and the opinions of law makers. There is strength in numbers and together, we can make a difference! On October 1 2010 , FACSA is hosting a Virtual Expo. I will explain more about that when the plans are solidified.
