Help Honor Anne Arundel County First Responders

Participate in Macaroni Kid Pasadena-Severna Park Act of Kindness Day

By Katy Agro Myers, Publisher Mom, Macaroni Kid Pasadena-Severna Park August 8, 2018

Macaroni Kid Pasadena-Severna Park will be honoring members of the Anne Arundel County Police & Fire Departments at our Support First: A Police & Fire Department Appreciation Event in September as part of Macaroni Kid Act of Kindness Day!  This year, we'll be collecting over 2,300 thank you cards from Anne Arundel County children to give to these local heroes.  For the past three years, we've seen the faces light up on those honored-we've heard them brag to their fellow officers about the awesome cards they receive.  It's also a fantastic learning opportunity for your children to know that police and fire dept. personnel are our friends-AND our heroes.
Cards can be in any format-check out our Pinterest Board for inspiration. 

We're asking YOU for help!
