Children’s Home thanks benefactors of campaign

Dear Editor:

As our annual campaign for 2007-2008 comes to a close, I am writing to extend a sincere thank you for the tremendous outpouring of support our community has demonstrated.

The loving support shown to the Children’s Home made it possible to achieve a very successful campaign for 2007-2008. We exceeded our goal, taking in over $262,000 in gifts and grants for the year. We are extremely grateful to each and every one of you for your generosity through your contribution via United Way, payroll deductions or directly to The Children’s Home.

Our mission is to improve the lives of at risk children and provide the highest level of support for our children who are in our care. With your financial assistance, we are able to maintain and continue this mission.

On behalf of the Board of Managers, the Executive Director, the Staff and Residents of the Children’s Home of Poughkeepsie, we would like to express our thanks to our many benefactors who contributed so generously to our 2007-2008 campaign request.

Lorraine Mendel
