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

Sincerely

Mark Williams
