Dear Friends of Lifespire,
Welcome to Lifespire’s 9th
Annual Golf Classic at the White Beeches Golf and Country Club. We are
particularly grateful that you have participated in our annual fund
raising event to support individuals with mental retardation and
developmental disabilities. The decision to host this year’s event was
particularly difficult in light of the poor economy. Nonetheless,
members of our Board of Directors, our management staff, and the Golf
Committee feel it especially important that during these difficult times
that we remind everyone that, despite a poor economy, the needs of our
consumers is not diminished. Regardless of how poorly the stock market
does, our staff must attend to all the needs of our consumers. Simply
because New York State’s deficit is upwards of $16 billion that we can
cut back on the needed services we provide.
So, it is in this time of economic crisis
that we reach out to those who have supported us in the past and ask
once again for your financial support. The fact that you are attending
this event says a great deal about how you feel about the work done by
Lifespire and we are extremely grateful.
We cannot predict when the financial
situation will improve in New York or for that matter, in the rest of
the country. Large deficits are projected for the next several years
and it will become increasingly difficult to provide superior care and
services to our consumers. Your financial support is vital if Lifespire
is to continue to meet its Mission.
On behalf of the Board of Directors, our
staff, and most importantly on behalf of our consumers whose lives are
enriched by your generosity we thank you for your financial support.
Sincerely,
|
Robert Krakow
Chairman, Lifespire BOD |
