Dear Friend 

As the end of the year approaches, I want to take few moments to look back at all we have accomplished since we opened our doors just seven short months ago.  

• Our At Home community now includes 88 members who enjoy our programs, home visits and other services.
• More than 60 volunteers provide services such as helping members with computers, driving them to doctor appointments, organizing dine-abouts and working in our office.
• 40 restaurants, stores and service providers are offering discounts to our members through our Community Associates program.
• Our October Opera-in-Concert program succeeded in raising our profile in the community -- and also raised money for our programs!
• Our bi-monthly Wednesday programs offer outstanding speakers on programs ranging from health and wellness to becoming a Broadway producer.

Most importantly, we are making a difference in the lives of our members and their families. As the daughter of one member wrote,

Your program has taken the stress from me. I am a nicer person. The value of the program extends far beyond the elderly client to his/her family and to the greater community in which that family functions...You are making a significiant difference in many lives.

I love being part of At Home on the Sound and look forward to each day, knowing I will be inspired by the enthusiasm of our volunteers and the appreciation of our members. Thank you for letting me be part of this wonderful community.
