Pickleball Fundraiser Tournament at Simpsonville Baptist Church

This portion of our tournament will be set in 2 1/2 hour time slots! You can sign up alone or with a partner to participate.

It will be run similar to a golf scramble. You will get a chance to play with other partners and maybe buy a serve (like a mulligan in golf) or get a prize for the longest game or the highest scoring game!

There will be breakfast or lunch to purchase, pickleball items for sale and wonderful new friends to make!

All of the money raised will go toward the ministry of Next Step Training Program!

Christmas Wrapping

We have been invited back to wrap gifts again at the Outlet Shoppes this Christmas season! Last was a great success and we hope to wrap even more presents this year!

One thing that will make this a tremendous event is a lot of volunteers! Come and greet customers, tag gifts, wrap gifts, put on bows and ribbons, whatever your forte is.

Please invite your friends and family to come and get their gifts wrapped and support our ministry at the same time!

Book Sale at the Outlet Shoppes of the Bluegrass

Come out and grab as many books as you can for $10! These are books that were left by the Book Warehouse so they are all new, and there is a little bit of everything there!

Our students will have done the work of sorting and setting up the site so that it will be easy to see what books there are, and they will on hand to help you take your load out to your car :)

The store is by the Puma Store and is not open to the public right now, but we will have access on February 7th from 10:00 - 12:00 and then again on February 9th from 6’:00 - 8:00 pm.

Most of our students come through referrals through vocational rehab, but others don't qualify and yet still need our help!  This fundraiser is to provide funds for those young adults who need some extra help finding and keeping gainful employment, but don't have the funds to attend our program.
