UNEXPECTED BLESSING

Rarely am I speechless.  Today was a rare day.  


Community partnerships are very important for grassroots organizations like ours.  We have a VERY generous partner.  PARK SQUARE HOMES held a unique fundraiser for us in October.  They agreed to donate a portion of every home sold during the month to COMPASSIONATE HANDS AND HEARTS.  I was thinking, in this housing market, that's probably going to be a small donation.  LOL


I am pleased to report I was wrong.  VERY WRONG.  Today three execs from the company, including the CEO, came by for the check presentation.  The expected small donation turned out to be a very generous check for $8000.  For a small organization with a dedicated band of volunteers, this is HUGE !!!


It's so exciting for us as an organization.  But more importantly, it's going to help us change the lives of some local breast cancer patients and their families.  We're looking forward to what this will allow us to do !
