YOU Helped Make a Difference!
This October we had dozens of events that helped raise money, bring awareness, and ultimately save lives. Your participation in our community fundraisers made a difference and we couldn’t do any of this without you! We are so thankful that every year our community comes together to support our mission, to save lives and meet the critical needs of our 22 city and county service area. We are still $25,000 from our Race for the Cure goal, there is still time to donate. Race for the Cure donations end November 17th, to make a donation to a team or a Race participant click here.
Thank You
The Komen Tidewater Team

BUNCO, a fun dice game, an excuse to spend time with friends, a fundraiser or all three. We think it is all three. Join the Tidewater office staff and friends in a night of Bunco. Never played Bunco, no problem, it is a social dice game involving 100% luck and no skill, there are no decisions to me made, just scoring and a simple set of rules. The object of the game is to accumulate points and to roll certain combinations. The winners get prizes!
