Dear HANDLE WITH CARE Donor,
“My family and I would like to take a few minutes of your time to thank you so very much for the donations. Because of your generosity, my family and I still have our apartment to call home. Times have been so very hard the past year with the lack of work and the cold winter. I, as a father, haven’t been able to provide a steady enough income for my family, but, with your help, it has shed a badly needed light on me. We thank you all so very much! You’ve shown, in more than words, how important it is to give.”
