Dear Ms. Shore,

On behalf of the Organization for a New Equality (O-N-E) we would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to Bernie & Phyl’s Furniture for your contribution to the silent auction at our annual Medal of Hope Dinner.  Your donation of a Gift Certificat valued at $50.00, was auctioned off for $40.00.  This year’s silent auction raised a total of $5,410.00, which in turn allows O-N-E to provide financial education and asset building programs to individuals and families across the nation.

The Medal of Hope Dinner is O-N-E’s signature event and this year over 200 people attended to celebrate and honor Helen B. Spaulding and induct Citizens Bank in the Economic Opportunity Hall of Famie, while Dr. Julianne Malveaus’s riveting keynote address drew a standing ovation.  O-N-E’s 21 years of work boasts a reach of over 500,000 in low and moderate income communities.  In additino to being a front runner in the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) Reform over a decade ago, O-N-E has undertaken asset building initiatives and policy and advocacy initiatives in recent years.

Again, we thank you your commitment to economic equality.  Your generous contribution has helped O-N-E raise critical funds and will allow O-N-E to continue to bring people into the financial mainstream for many more years to come.

With gratitude,

Joseph E. Washington, Chariperson & CEO

Dear Ms. Shore,

On behalf of the Westborough Interfaith Clergy Association, we thank you for your generous support of this year’s Thanksgiving Dinner for Senior Citizens.  The event celebrated community at its very best.

Volunteers prepared a traditional turkey dinner at the Knights of Columbus hall for 60 seniors who might otherwise have spent Thanksgiving alone. An additional 30 meals were provided to the host families who served the seniors and visited with them.  Sixty-two local seniours also received a hot meal delivered directly to their homes.  The facility was beautifully decorated and we had a wide variety of delicious homemade desserts.  A talented group of student musicians from Westborough High School entertained.  It was a wonderful day.

Your charitable contribution is much appreciated.  your generosity was acknowledged in the event program and will be in subsequent local newspaper articles.

We hope you will be inspired to support this dinner again next year so that we may continue to share in teh bounty of the season together again.

Sincerely,

Bobbi Feinblatt, Coordinator
