As the Coronavirus situation changes from day to day, we remain focused on our clients and our mission to provide nutritional support to those who need it the most. Our clients are already dealing with underlying health conditions, so out of an abundance of caution, we will temporarily send vouchers via registered mail to ensure the continuation of service to the intended recipient and not distribute vouchers in person. We will continue to update/evaluate/research other solutions as we receive additional information.

 

As the impact of the Coronavirus continues to affect the world, we are staying abreast of all public health guidelines. This of course requires us to evaluate whether to keep our annual Evening Under the Stars event on May 2 or postpone it to a later date. At this point, we feel like we will know a great deal more about the spread of the virus in the next 2 to 3 weeks.

 

Accordingly, we are going to wait to make any decisions until April 6. Your health and safety is our foremost concern and we will follow all guidelines from government and health officials. We have back-up dates reserved and our entertainer is ready and willing to adjust his schedule. We rely on revenue from Evening Under the Stars to continue to serve our clients uninterrupted, throughout the summer months. Whenever the event is held, we promise an exciting, joyful event, and we’ll all need it!

 

If you already have tickets, perhaps consider an ad in our program to congratulate our honorees, promote your business, or make an additional donation.

 

Meanwhile, let’s all please remember to call and check on friends and neighbors, and to take care of ourselves. Go for a walk, and get some sunlight wherever possible. Do exercise, eat well, and stay hydrated. We’ll get through this together.

 

As always, please feel free to reach out by phone or email if you have questions or wish to offer your support.

 

 

Sincerely,

Mark Anton

C.E.O./Executive Director
