Dear Cathy,
Things have been different. We find ourselves, just as you might be, questioning if they will ever be the same again.
Yet, throughout the darkness, there are glimmers of light. When we walk through the doors of the Cummings Centre and see our members enjoying fitness classes, painting, working in the woodshop, sharing a bite to eat at Café Soleil, volunteering, and more, it brings us great joy. When we witness the community coming together to raise funds both abroad and locally to enhance Jewish life, we cannot help but feel hope.
Yes, times are tough, but it is through these tiny miracles, these sparks of light, and these moments of generosity that we realize our strength. Because, together we are stronger.
Our seniors need the Centre now, more than ever; as a happy distraction, as a lifeline, and as a place to learn and feel a sense of community. Your donation as a Governor means so much. It means increasing funding for vital social services and mental health programs. It means decreasing isolation by offering more opportunities to learn and to create. It means giving our seniors a sense of community and a feeling of hope.
We thank you for your support. If you have not yet renewed your Governors commitment, we encourage you to do so before December 31 in order to receive a 2023 tax receipt.
As Chanukah approaches, we'd like to wish you and your families a holiday filled with joy and light. May the Chanukah candles brighten up your homes, and our world.
