Dear Friends,

On behalf of the children and families served by The Home for Little Wanderers and Alleghany Street, I would like to thank you so much for your generosity and help with the Extreme Makeover. Your gift of children’s furniture, which you valued at $9,636.15, will help the children at The Home have a fulfilling life!

At The Home we depend in great part on the in-kind donations and support we receive from caring people like you. Since 1799, we have been caring for some of the area’s most troubled children and their families. Thanks to your generosity, The Home is able to provide these children and families with a stable, nurturing environment in which to overcome the problems they face and achieve their emotional, social and educational potential.

Once again, I would like to extend my sincere appreciation to you for your gift. Thank you for your continued interest and support.

Warmest regards,

Joan Wallace-Benjamin, Ph.D.

President and CEO

Dear Naomi:

Thank you so much for your generous support of the Second Annual Celebration of Giving. We appreciate your contribution of a gift certificate. Your donation added so much to our display of auction items and helped to raise money for the thousands of children served by child welfare agencies that benefit from The Rodman Ride for Kids.

Thousands of children in New England awaken every morning to an uncertain future. The challenges they face sometimes seem unbearable - poverty, abuse, loneliness, abandonment, fear, illness. For the past 12 years, the Ride for Kids Foundation has worked with dozens of child welfare organizations and advocacy groups, donating over $13 million to help promote healthy, positive lives for children in need. For many of the children sewed, the holidays can be a devastating time of year. Through a “Holiday Celebration of Giving” gala auction and dinner, the Ride for Kids Foundation seeks to make the holidays a little brighter for these children by providing them with toys, winter clothes, food, school supplies and other personal items. For many, this will be the only gift that they receive. We believe that every child deserves to feel the magic of the holiday season, and because of your donation their holiday season will truly be magical.

Again, our heartfelt thanks for your kindness and all you did to help make the holidays brighter for thousands of children and families.

Warmest Regards,

Kathy Cronin
Committee Member
