Now more than ever... help them move toward their future

“Very few times in life can an individual make a real difference to a community- especially a child. Elaine and I have supported the Club since 1997. We ask you to join us, knowing you are investing in a financially disciplined effort that maximizes its dollars to help children. No child is ever turned away because of lack of financial resources. Your support of the Foundation is an investment in your community and its children. We will always support this wonderful place of hope, warmth, possibilty and caring. Children are our future; they are the foundation of tomorrow.”
