We would not be here today were it not for everyone coming together to make CARE 66 happen.
Contained in the list below are stories - of frustration, hopelessness, depression, anger, and also of success, hope, sanity, homes, jobs, and fullness. You will find yourself in the lists below, not by name, but, by what you have done for people who are homeless with no one to help them.
I have not mentioned you by name only because there are so many of you. Today we give you thanks for your generosity of spirit, wallet and time.
