			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When thinking about an organization that is action oriented, volunteer driven and globally linked, <a href="http://www.kidsmatterinternational.org">Kids Matter International</a> stands out.  Its mission is to bring healing to orphaned, abandoned or disadvantaged children by providing an environment where they can grow stronger emotionally and physically, so they may become healthy adults and productive citizens of their nations.  <a href="http://www.hakimsonsfilms.com">Hakim Sons Films</a> had the great honor to film the 2010 Kids Matter International Gala at the <a href="http://www1.hilton.com/en_US/hi/hotel/DFWSLHF-Hilton-Dallas-Southlake-Town-Square-Texas/index.do">Hilton Southlake</a>, which raised hundreds of thousands of dollars with its motto &#8220;Whether around the world, or around the Block&#8230;&#8230;..KIDS MATTER!!!&#8221;</p>

<p style="text-align: center;">Since the first time I heard the American Food Services&#8217; story, I have tried to figure out how our company, Hakim Sons Films, could create a legacy that is as impressive and inspiring as the one of the LaBarba Family, one of the finest Dallas based firms.  Founded in 1917, <a href="http://http://www.freshpoint.com/index.html">FreshPoint Dallas </a>has been serving the finest clientele in America as the leading distributor of perishable products to the foodservice and retail segments in the extended Dallas/Ft. Worth area for over 83 years.</p>

To keep a fresh and modern look to your wedding, whatever your style, incorporate  some of the newest, hottest trends of the year. Watch for eye-catching color combinations,  changes in dress styles, fun favors and new ideas for creating a one-of-a- kind wedding  celebration. Of course, trends come and go so be sure to check out the latest bridal  magazines, wedding websites and wedding blogs to see what&#8217;s hot and what&#8217;s not!</p>
