NSSRA Foundation
2017 Holiday Appeal Shining Stars Banquet
Thanks to your generosity, the NSSRA Foundation
Holiday Appeal raised nearly $50,000 to support
NSSRA programs and participants! Plans are well underway for this year's Shining Stars
Awards & Recognition Banquet!
This year, the Leahy Family Foundation matched all new
or increased gifts, up to $5,000! Thank you, Leahy Family
Foundation!
You made dreams come true! Your generosity has made it
possible for a child with a disability to attend summer camp
with friends. You have made it possible for adults living
independently to have access to transportation, allowing them
to participate in therapeutic, meaningful activities with their
peers. We value your friendship and look forward to sharing
more success stories with you this year!
Thanks to the generosity of many of our supporters, each year
the banquet has become all the more memorable for our
participants, families, staff and the community. We hope many
will again join NSSRA Foundation in sponsoring this year's
celebration. Visit www.nssrafoundation.org/shiningstars for
more information or to become a sponsor. Thank you for your
support!
Thanks to your support, dreams really do come true!
