Some “thank yous” we received
Notes from our clients
We wanted to share with you some of the thank-you notes we received from our clients:
“We would like to give you our warmest thanks for the wonderful stockings we received for our clients again this year. They are always stuffed with such great items for our kids and teens - they love them! It makes a very special gift for them. This year many of our families were not served by the traditional community groups; donations were severely down. Your stockings really helped us fill the gap and provide some holiday cheer for our children.”
“We picked up our program stockings and they were a hit. Lots of smiles and amazement that they got to keep the stockings. Most of our kids have never owned their own stocking before. Thanks again for your wonderful program, Independent Living Program.”
“With the holidays upon us, your gifts, the 100 holiday stockings, are especially meaningful to our parents and children. Being homeless is discouraging for families and even more difficult during the holidays. At Annie Ross House, homeless families find peace and are able to celebrate and give thanks for the blessings that are bestowed upon them from cheerful spirits like you. On behalf of our families, thank you for your kindness and generosity. Agency”
“I really appreciate all the things in the stocking. Everything in it will be very useful. Thank you for thinking about me during the busiest time of the year. M”
