Where our money comes from
Even though hundreds of people sign up for our website and newsletters, come to our programs and our volunteer events, only 30 people donated a total of $2,909 in 2020, leaving us with a deficit of $1,698. We have a small amount of savings we have had to dip in to, but if this continues, we will not be able to continue as an organization. Please become a member today.
Please also consider volunteering with us. Our calendar of events is updated and ready for you to check out.
