Happy Retirement Anne!
RMH Providence must bid farewell to one of our beloved staff members. Over the past 7 years, Anne Rothenberg has dedicated her kind energy to ensuring families feel welcome and safe. Often times, Anne was the first the first person to welcome new families into the House. As assistant House Manager and Volunteer Coordinator, Anne made certain our volunteer staff was managed with the utmost respect. Volunteering many hours herself, Anne has been one of the key organizers of our Annual Walk Festival. We wish her the best in her retirement. |

Walk & Gala Committee Members Needed
It's never too early to start talking about our Annual Walk Festival coming up May, 2012. We are seeking energetic, creative people to compose the Walk Planning Committee. This committee will focus on securing new Walk Sponsors and making the 2012 Walk the most successful Walk to date.
Also, we are thrilled to announce an exciting addition to our 2012 calendar of events. On the evening of Saturday, November 3, we will host a Gala at the Ocean House.
We are looking for committee members to help plan our first Gala. The sub committees include sponsorship, volunteer, auction, entertainment & decor.
If you are interested in either event, please contact Nicole Anderson. |

The Students of Wee Care Day Care in North Smithfield have been actively fundraising for RMH Providence for two years. We love to see the little ones get involved in community service.
