JESSE
TREE THANK YOU "Please
accept our grateful thanks for your Giving Tree donations this past Christmas.
Our residents were overwhelmed by your generosity. For them, it was a good
lesson in selflessness and helping those less fortunate. Thank you for
your support of our ministry over the years. It would be remiss of me to
not acknowledge your sustained generosity toward our mission. May God
bless you all and keep you well." - Cynthia Scroggins, Program Director,
Madonna House.
