Stories involve people and the unfolding of their lives day by day, year by year.
For many people in our community the story of their lives up to this point is one characterized by great need. Their life stories are not fated, however, to have unhappy endings. Americans traditionally have been a generous and compassionate people, and this generosity and compassion is manifested in part through the work of countless local non-profit agencies. These agencies provide those services that will help improve the lives of those in need. We can contribute our care, compassion, concern and solidarity.
