Milk Parties
August 10th, 2010 by flanewsFrom Pensacola to Key West milk will be the party drink of choice.
15 �Milk Parties� are scheduled for September to help raise awareness and find solutions to the problems facing Florida�s children. Only three cents of every tax dollar in Florida is spent on kids and many are living without health insurance. The Milk Parties are being hosted by the Children�s Movement of Florida. Co-Chairman David Lawrence says the state is finding money for many of its obligations, but not kids.
�We know how to get money for roads and prisons and agriculture and a lot of other things, I�m not disputing any of that, but when do children become a first priority in the state of Florida,� asked Lawrence.
Milk Party details including times and locations will be posted on the Children�s Movement of Florida�s website later this month. That site is www.childrensmovementflorida.org
