Dear Friend of TradeWinds,
These are challenging times for everyone, especially for social impact organizations like ours that are supporting families and individuals with special needs through this pandemic. Because those we serve are especially vulnerable during this time, we have increased efforts to keep our children and adults with diverse abilities safe and healthy. Our advanced COVID-19 protocols have been a top priority, unavoidable, and costly. These unforeseen expenses have stressed our budget, with little relief seen in the near future. We are doing our best to provide a safe, caring, and supportive environment.
No contribution is too small to make an impact! Please consider a donation, at a level you are comfortable with, to help make a difference in the lives of children and adults with special needs from our community. Your donation may be tax-deductible*.
Thank you so much for your support, for making a difference during these uncertain times, and for your dedication to people with special needs who struggle to understand this unprecedented situation.
Jon Gold, CEO
