THANK YOU FOR HELPING CELEBRATION...WE ARE PAYING IT FORWARD!


                 hat a whirlwind the past couple of months have been!   by Debra Saxon - Owner, Celebration Magazine
                 We certainly felt the heat as we were getting ready to
        Wprint the April/May issue of Celebration. No one knew   need...just as we were a few months ago.
        what the effects of the pandemic would be on our little company.   So,  with  all  of  this  said,  I  would  like  to  let  you  know  that
        So, we asked for your help, and many of you responded.   Celebration Magazine is PAYING YOUR CONTRIBUTIONS
        Over  the  past  eight  weeks,  Greg  and  I  would  venture  out  of   FORWARD. By the time you read this magazine, Collin County
        our house, facemasked and gloved up to go to our PO Box in   Meals on Wheels will have received a check from Celebration
        McKinney.  There we would find little notes of encouragement,   Marketing  Group,  LLC.,  in  the  names  of  every  person  who
        cards, and articles with inspirational stories to keep us motivated   contributed to Celebration in our time of need.
        and, of course, contributions, which in total was enough for us to   On behalf of all of us at Celebration Magazine, THANK YOU!
        pay The SPOT rent for April, this meant a lot to us.   Your kind words, love and support mean the world to us.
        After getting the mail each time, we would sit in our car reading   A BIG SHOUT OUT and THANK YOU GOES TO:
        each note and letter, and of course, they all brought me to tears.

        All the while, I was working on obtaining the Payroll Protection            Kay J.         Rosemary
        Program so that I could keep our Celebration Team paid, There   Betty S.
        were a couple of weeks that I wasn't able to pay the team as we   Cathy F.  Kay S.         Sharon and Sam
        didn't have enough money coming in. But the Celebration team   Cheryl M.    Lee F.         Shirley WS
        didn't let anything discourage them. They continued to work full   Cissy K.  Lee L.        Terry H.
        schedules, creating new online Zoom programming and worked   Corrine F.     Leisha R.      Tonie and Melvin
        harder than ever to make sure that Celebration was still delivering   Darrell and Carole Q.  Lillie W.
        our promises to you, and our Advertising Partners.     David and Jackie S.  Linda J.
        Now,  if  you  read  my  article  about  North  Dallas  Bank  on  the   David F.  Linda T.
        previous page (page 5), you know that after a long emotional   Dottie T.    Lynda G.
        battle  we  were  able  to  obtain  the  Payroll  Protection  Program   Elaine S.  Martha S
        to keep our team paid and just last week,(May 15th) we also   Enid D.       Martha W.
        received the EIDL Loan from the SBA. This loan has allowed   Gail D.        Matt and Donna H.
        Celebration to pay off all of our obligations, take care of our bills,
        and continue to print Celebration Magazine, without missing any   Genevieve R.  Mimi and John
        steps.                                                 Gerald B.            Monica E.
        Now  that  Celebration  can  operate  without  worry,  we  wanted   Holles  Moreen and Judge
        to  make  sure  that  the  money  that  sent  in  as  contributions  to   Jill and Ken B.  Opal A.
        Celebration  continued  to  do  good  and  help  others  who  are  in   Jerry and Orene B.  Paul and Susan.
