A Chrysalis Reminds Us of Possibilities

 

Did You Know?
 

We Are Grateful!!

While our staff was eating lunch together today, we were overcome with gratitude for each other, our board, our community, and with and for all of you. 

As busy as we have all been this year, we have so easily been swept along our individual and collective currents, such that acknowledging gratitude has been left for the future. 

Today we stop and share a deep, heartfelt, and skin-tingly THANK YOU TO YOU.


Gratefully,

The Staff of the Foundation

Kat, Kim, Melissa, Misty, Sara, and Jeannamarie
