Portions of the proceeds from the sales of this CD will be donated to The Will Santa Find Me? Foundation, Inc. (WSFMF), located in Wallingford, CT. This charity is one of Connecticut’s largest children’s wish-granting, non-profit organizations. Fulfilling exact holiday wishes and needs throughout the year for children and their families suffering from hardships is the mission of the organization's founder, Remi Borak. Most of these children are away from home at adoption homes, homeless and domestic violence shelters and hospitals. The "Will Santa Find Me ?" Foundation is about the "spirit of giving". The WSFMF gained statewide recognition in 2002 when it was featured on several television news programs. It flourished in many of the state’s corporations and schools that adopted the Foundation. As a 501(c)(3) organization, all of the WSFMF’s funding comes from public and private donations.
