November was National Adoption Month, and HFS marked this annual celebration with the publication of our annual Gratitude Report and end-of-the-year solicitation. Thank you to board member Elaine Tumonis who wrote the compelling letter that accompanied the 6-page Gratitude Report (Fiscal Year 2021 – 2022 Annual Report) that went out to over 1,300 of our donors and supporters.
As of late January, we have received over 100 donations to the agency and met our goal of raising more than $30,000.
