*lively basket raffle.

Your family members, friends, and neighbors are invited to this heartwarming evening of remembrance.
All 3 events will be hosted at St. Matthews Catholic Church, where we meet monthly.
St. Matthew’s address is 8015 Ballantyne Commons Parkway, Charlotte, NC 28277.
Below are a few details about each event.
Spring butterfly release
Shortly after 6 pm, butterflies will be released at the fountain in front of the building where we meet monthly.
If you can participate in our butterfly release, RSVP the number of people coming with you. An email or text is fine. Your response will determine the number of butterflies we order. The chapter will donate one butterfly per family at no cost to our members.
Delicious potluck dinner
After the butterfly release, we will gather in The Banquet Room, #102, for our potluck dinner and raffle.
If you can attend the potluck, please bring a covered dish, side dish, appetizer, or dessert to share. In addition to enjoying a great meal (that you didn’t have to cook), you’ll enjoy the company of other compassionate friends in our Charlotte Chapter.
Basket raffle
Funds raised through our basket raffle stay in our Charlotte chapter and enable the chapter to hold events such as the candle lighting event, butterfly release and refreshments provided during meetings.
If you can curate, and donate a basket, please do. Baskets of all sizes and themes are welcome.

Popular basket themes include coffee, wine, pets, gardening, sports, etc. Gift cards from restaurants, nail salons, local attractions, or retail stores also make great baskets. Let your imagination, generosity, and compassion be your guide! 

If you can curate, and donate a basket, please let me know by May 14th.

Love and Peace,
