About Favorite Things for a CAUSE

“Favorite Things for a CAUSE (Creating Awareness by Understanding Setbacks through Edification),” is a not-for-profit mission promoting hope, goodwill and mentoring, by collaborating with community alliances. The highly acclaimed Oprah Winfrey Favorite Things Show inspired founders, Francene Marie Morris and Kym Gordon Moore, to turn their idea of using some of their favorite things or favorite benevolent projects to help those in the community.

On Sunday, December 16, 2007, their debut project launched with a mock version of Oprah’s Favorite Things Show, which was held at The Dove’s Nest, a program that provides a loving, highly structured Christian environment to help women understand and deal with the core issues of their alcohol and/or drug addiction. This gave Francene and Kym an opportunity to share some of their favorite things with these women, and to encourage them to persevere in their journey towards healing and recovery, while holding on to hope, despite the trials and tribulations they were facing.

For this launch, Favorite Things for a CAUSE received various donations from generous contributors (consisting of fragrance and cosmetics samples, hair care products, food and a variety of other core necessities) that the residents could use. An even bigger blessing came when the mission received a copy of the January 2008 issue of O, The Oprah Magazine from the publisher of Hearst Publications for each resident and staff member. These gifts were not tokens of pity, but symbols of love, encouragement and support, by paying it forward.

With it’s ongoing charitable mission, Favorite Things for a CAUSE continues to build community alliances with ordinary people who are going above and beyond the call of expectation, by doing some extraordinary things to make a difference in the lives of everyday people.
