Friends,
Everything
we do costs money. That’s the nature of the world today, right? It takes
money to fight poverty. Lots of it.
It
costs $15 million to operate CitySquare each year. Annually, that amount
allows us to touch the lives of tens of thousands of neighbors. Sometimes
we see that neighbor only once when they visit the food pantry between
paychecks. Other times, we see them daily as they access a wide range of
CitySquare services.
In
the month of December, we’ve set out to raise $1 million. That amount of
money will allow our WorkPaths training courses to continue to provide 100%
of graduates with industry standard certifications. It will allow our
clinic to be a medical home to 3,000 uninsured individuals. It will once
more allow our food pantry to put more than one million pounds of food in
the hands of neighbors who worry where their next meal will come from. A $1
million goal maintains hope in the heart of our organization.
This
is why we have set such a lofty goal by the end of 2015. Please consider making a gift today to make this work
possible.
We can’t do it without you.
For
our city,
Larry
James
Chief Executive Officer,
CitySquare
