Invite friends to Yellow Door's New Year's Eve breakfast

(Wow, two postings in one night. I've tripled the postings for 2012!)

Recently, I attended a holiday gathering and Yellow Door came up and, specifically, the topic of the upcoming New Year's Eve breakfast. A handful of ladies were keen to learn more about Yellow Door and, it made me think... there are many people who missed Yellow Door's heyday... and, therefore, may miss these every-so-often, truly amazing breakfast fundraisers.

So, Yellow Door friends, let's spread the word, shout the news, tweet, post, share, instagram, whatever...you get the picture.

Together, let's raise a ton of money for Faith in Action at Yellow Door's New Year's Eve breakfast (9 to noon @ Chelsea fairgrounds).

Thanks to the support of Common Grill, Susan Jacobs, CPA, and Dr. Raymond Howe, all Yellow Door proceeds on New Year's Eve benefit Faith in Action.
