Guardians of the
BHP 2020- COVID
(Gifts from 11.1.19 through 10.31.20)
In times of uncertainty, we see the best of our community emerge. We are overwhelmed with gratitude for all who have stepped forward to ask "How can I help?"
Thanks for being Guardians of the BHP who worked to fill a projected $150,000 funding gap caused by lack of income in 2020.
“At times, our own light goes out and is rekindled by a spark from another person. Each of us has cause to think with deep gratitude of those who have lighted the flame within us.” – Albert Schweitzer
