Subject: | Resolution Recognizing October 30, 2013 as Daughters of the Nile Day in PA |
Please join us in recognizing October 30, 2012 as "Daughters of the Nile Day" in Pennsylvania. Founded in 1913, and now celebrating their 100th birthday, Daughters of the Nile continues to support Shriners Hospitals for Children by raising funds for research and equipment, surgeries, therapies, and prostheses for children who suffer from cleft lip and palate, spinal cord injuries, orthopedic issues or serious burns, regardless of their family's ability to pay. In addition, members also provide children with clothing and quilts, activity bags, toys, books, educational and recreational items to help a child during their recovery at a Shriners Hospital. Pennsylvania is proud to be home to five Temples of the Daughters of the Nile (Altoona, Erie, Harrisburg, Philadelphia and Pittsburgh). Please join me in congratulating them for 100 years of philanthropy and best wishes for continued success in their next 100 years. |
