TOWN 'N COUNTRY - The Children's Home North Tampa Auxiliary raised $40,000 for the Town 'N Country-based center this year at its golf tournament, holiday gala and casino night.

Now 14 years old, the auxiliary has raised more than $500,000 for the home on Memorial Highway for troubled and neglected children.

Auxiliary members also take children on outings, organize parties and perform maintenance on their cottages.

The auxiliary meets monthly, drawing primarily from New Tampa. For more information, call John Henne at 971-3016 or e-mail Jhenne1@Tampabay.rr.com
