I've been taking care of my elderly mother for
nearly a year now and it's wearing me out both physically and
financially. Is there any way I could get paid to be her caregiver?

Dear Donors,
There is
something about the end of the school year that is hectic
for everyone, even if you don't have kids!
First thing you
know it's Easter and then we have to start mowing the grass and
preparing the new landscaping. It all happens in such a rush.
It's also a
wonderful time of year to celebrate and here at the Community
Foundation is no exception. It's the end of our fiscal year and
we'd like to share with everyone what was accomplished with the many
funds held at the Foundation last year. These accomplishments
will be the highlight of our Annual Meeting on May 4th. We
hope you'll RSVP and plan to attend!
Also, one lucky
attendee will win $5000 to place into a new or existing fund at
the Foundation. However, you must be present to win! But,
that's not the only reason to come. It really is
a wonderful night to celebrate with other generous people just
like you.
We look forward
to seeing you on Tuesday, May 4th.
