Friends,
Well, the winter holiday season is past and we're moving into a brand new year hoping for the best one ever. I saw this article in the Warren paper on Friday and wanted to be sure you had a chance to read it. This is the very core principal that drives Hooktown Holiday's. Although we started out during the holiday season we are, in fact, active all year round. If you've followed this blog or our Facebook page, you know this.
There's an important point that's made in this short article, "The less fortunate will need just as much help with necessities such as food, shelter, clothing and health care next month as they did on Dec. 25." This speaks directly to our specific and singular mission, "To provide nutritious food, warm clothing, and/or other necessities of life to individuals and families in need in our community." That's it.
When you support Hooktown Holiday's you know exactly were your funds are going. We are volunteer board members and none receive salaries. We are compensated by the joy and honor of being able to help.
As we head into 2017, Hooktown Holiday's continues it's mission. I invite you to continue your support if you currently do so. If you are not currently a supporter and you feel a connection to the direction we take, please consider Hooktown Holiday's in your charitable giving for 2017.
May you have a Happy and Prosperous New Year!
Terry
