Greetings and Salutations:
You may know me from growing up in Sparta New Jersey, attending George Mason University in Northern Virginia or from working and living in North or South Carolina or maybe since I have been residing in Connecticut.
In the last two years I have made some significant changes in my life and have received a lot of help from the local YMCA. Due to the choices I made in the past I was put in a position where I needed to restructure my life. When I moved to Connecticut almost two years ago I was in desperate need of an avenue of hope. The YMCA became a great place for Logan and me to be surrounded by social responsibility, healthy living and youth development. I acquired a membership through their Y Cares program that made membership affordable. This membership gave us HOPE that all would be well.
I am asking that you consider donating to the Y Cares program. Your donation will help provide memberships to those that might be going through a hardship similar to ours or one that is different. Either way it provides hope to people who might think there isn’t any.
I am now employed at the Y and every day I witness what the program does for these families. This program benefits the many families who are facing some of life’s challenges such as health needs and job loss. I have watched these families grow from the Y experience.
Should you decide you would like to share a gift with the Y Cares Program more information on what your gift goes to can be found at the website below.

Should you choose to donate there is a way to give directly from the above website. There is two drop down options for you to choose where you would like to apply your gift. One allows you to choose the campaign you would like to apply your gift to. The other asks if you would like your gift to be affiliated with a campaigner and my name is listed.
Logan and I are involved with Mystic Reach Out to Youth and I cannot express to you how helpful it has been for us.

Hi Family! I just realized that I sent Jon the letter that was curtailed towards friends and aquaintances. The family letter is just the same with out the top line. Sorry about that! Hope everyone is well! :o)
