 2012 Annual Support Campaign Kicks Off this Month

 

 

 We are at the most important part of our fundraising year - our Annual Support Campaign.  During this six-week campaign with a goal of $106,000 this year, we want our message to reach those who understand the importance of the work we do; and those who are new to the vital services that the Alliance provides.

 

Please read our Campaign Case Statement to get a clear picture of our need.

 

If you receive a call from a friend or a knock on the door, please be generous to our volunteers - they are working hard to reach this year's campaign goal.

 

As always, you may contact

Michelle Noseworthy, Development Director at 831.655.4243 with any questions.
