St. Clare Knights of Columbus Host Father's Day pancake fundraiser for The Soldiers Project/Sacramento

Nothing succeeds like success. At least that's what the good folks at St. Clare Catholic Church in Roseville figure as they prepare for the Second Annual Father's Day Pancake Breakfast, set for Sunday, June 15!

The event will benefit The Soldiers Project/Sacramento-Greater Placer, a non- profit organization which provides free, confidential psychological therapy to active-duty military and veterans of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, as well as their family members and loved ones.

All-you-eat golden brown pancakes and all the fixin's will be served from 8:30- 11:30 a.m. in the church parish hall, 1950 Junction Blvd. (corner of Junction and Baseline Road) in Roseville.

The hosts – and expert chefs – for the event is the congregation's Knights of Columbus Council 12887. Last year the food fest raised about $2,500 for The Soldiers Project in ticket sales and donations.

Besides pancakes, the June 15 menu will include deluxe pancakes, eggs, sausage, country potatoes, country biscuits and gravy, orange juice, fruit cocktail, coffee and tea. The pancake breakfast is bargain priced at just $8 for adults and $3 for children under 12 years of age. The meal will be free of charge to disabled veterans and active-duty military in uniform.

For more information about the event, how you can help out or to make a donation to The Soldiers Project/Sacramento and Greater Placer, contact SK Richard "Ricco" Ches at 916-869-4447 or email him at riccoches416@gmail.com.

The Soldiers Project/Sacramento, named in 2012 by the White House as one of the nation's top 20 military service organizations, is comprised of about 45 volunteer therapists who last year gave nearly 1,000 hours of free treatment to soldiers and their families. Its unlimited services go beyond those provided by the Department of Veterans Affairs medical system.

Quizons Customer Appreciation Day August 15th To Benefit The Soldiers Project

On Thursday, August 15, from 10a.m. to 9p.m.. participating Quiznos will offer any small sub for just $1.00 with the purchase of a drink. Customers will have the option to upgrade to a regular sub for $2.99.

A portion of every sandwich sale on August 15th will benefit The Soldiers Project, a non-profit organization that brings free, confidential mental health services to active-duty military and veterans of the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan and their loved ones.

“This is definitely a win-win for both Quiznos and The Soldiers Project,” said Becca Bettis, program director
for The Soldier Project in Sacramento and the Greater Placer area. “This customer appreciation day will
allow Quiznos to thank its patrons and give us the opportunity to educate the community about what we do
for military members and their families.”

Every dollar raised for The Soldiers Project on August 15 will stay within the Sacramento and Greater Placer community and will be used to provide psychological treatment to military service members and their loved ones who have served or who expect to serve in conflict.

The Soldier Project volunteers will be on hand at each restaurant to distribute information, answer questions and accept additional donations.
