Dear Charities of Hope -

Please accept our sincere thanks for your donation to the Newington Volunteer Ambulance Corps Memorial Fund in the amount of $500.00.

This donation has been duly recorded in memory of Nelson Deschamps. The family will be notified of your generosity.

Yours truly,

Carol Mitchel
Secretary

We would like to thank you for your generous donation of silverware, bowls, cups, Beanie Babies, stuffed animals, toys, books, boots, coat, hats, baby quilts, blankets, booties, jackets, fleece, cologne, toiletries, pants, and onesies. Donations such as yours help us to provide the customers of the shelter with necessities of life that most of us take for granted.

We would like to acknowledge that without your generosity and consideration, the customers of SHELTER N.O.W. would not only be without permanent housing, they would also be without hope. It is your kindness that empowers our customers and encourages our staff to continue this difficult mission.

Sincerely,

William Tuthill
Director of Justice and Residential Programs Shelter NOW

Charities of Hope joined AHM Youth and Family Services in celebrating over 15 years of helping out the local community in Andover, Hebron, and Marlborough.

Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD) is a rare, fatal brain disorder. The statistical incidence of CJD cases is one case, per million, per population. In the United States, this translates to approximately 250-300 new cases per year. Eighty-five percent of the cases are sporadic, meaning there is no known cause at present.

The Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease Foundation consists of members who are concerned about the complexity of issues surrounding this fatal brain disease. Our mission is to support families and loved ones touched by CJD. The Foundation’s philosophy is to be proactive by establishing collaborations and linkages, communicating with family members, researchers, physicians and political representatives and informing the broader community about CJD.

The Foundation is increasingly called on to help more and more families which means our resources are constantly being stretched. We need your help to be able to continue to meet the needs of those affected by CJD. Your tax deductible gift will enable us to continue our work.
