On behalf of our employees, board of directors, independent
contractors, volunteers, and community partners, I want
to express our deep gratitude that we are able to continue
working during the Covid-19 pandemic, doing our small part to
assist the REAL HEROES, the medical teams, workers, and all on
the front lines. THANK YOU to our local business sponsors and
partners, and to our members and donors, for your continuing
financial support!
