Help us help Alzheimer’s with our Community Service Project.

Our project this year is creating 6 x 6 or 8 x 8 pages to give to local Alzheimer’s patients.  Our hope and goal is to be able to capture memories that may be slipping by due to the nature of this ugly disease. This could also become a legacy for family members in the future.

K.I.S.S. Staff will assemble all pages collected into albums and distribute to local Alzheimer’s patients.

Pages will be collected November 14th and 15th at the Viva Las Vegas Crop in Carthage, MO.    Points will be given for each page donated and the person with the most donated pages will win a brand new Pazzles Inspiration Machine. 2nd and 3rd place awards will also be given.

Here are the rules:

1. Pages must be handmade
2. 6 x 6 or 8 x 8 in size
3. Pages need to be complete, in that the person getting them will only have to add photos and journaling.
4. Pages should have place for photo, a spot for optional journaling and some type of embellishment.
5. Themes should be relative to the project. Family, kids, vacations, memories, wedding, seasons, jobs, family tree, home,military, etc.
