What a great year! Thank you all for your efforts - monthly donations, financial contributions at registration and beyond, monthly support of raffle baskets and fundraisers. At this writing, we estimate that we have donated well over $7,000 in monetary donations and material donations to the Thrift Shop, food pantry, clothing store and supply closet at WTH.
A special thanks to those members who offered homes for fundraisers and who shared their skills with us: Roberta Mehta and Sheela Paranjpe, Christine Chapman, Mary Hurst, Rebecca Benoit and Eileen Gerrie. Thanks also to the Activity groups who donated. Not only did we raise money for WTH, but these events gave us opportunities to meet new people, to have fun, and to learn a thing or two. We would love to be able to continue these opportunities to share and grow together. Please let us know if you have a talent you would like to share next year - hosting a party is one of them!
We also hope to offer a variety of volunteer opportunities in the coming year. We have gotten to know so many great organizations that we would like to continue our relationships with them as well as find other organizations, you might know of some, who want volunteers.
We wish you all a healthy, happy summer and we look forward to another year of friendship, philanthropy and fun!

Thank you to Mary Hurst, our very own Celtic jewelry designer. Mary gathered many of her unique, one-of-a-kind pieces of jewelry, displayed and sol them at our April fashion show luncheon. She then donated $1,195 of her sales to our charity.
