Monday, November 22, 2010 Good afternoon all; We received an anonymous donation today in the amount of $50,000. My matching campaign raised $2,860 so with my matching amount we have another $5,720.

On Saturday, December 4th, 2010, Celebrate Life Volunteers hosted a pancake breakfast for guests of Hope Lodge Boston. Terry Sgarzi Delano, Cathy's sister, was one of the event planners. She later received this email which truly makes all our hard work so worthwhile... Click here to see some pics from the breakfast... |
Your family is amazing! One of the most amazing points here at Hope Lodge is the interaction between the guest. Its like having an ongoing 'support group' right here under one roof. Its based on a genuine caring, sharing personal details, and helping one another during tougher moments. Volunteers that come here share their heart, food, activities, and even just by being here, they provide us with an opportunity to congregate downstairs for a period of time, elevating the morale more than you could imagine. We were so excited when we found out that a breakfast would be provided by volunteers. What we received by your presence was so much more. You guys totally touched us with your kindness, and a terrific menu. The food was delicious, you can actually open a family Restaurant !!!!! Since my husband, who had a kidney and bone marrow transplants together in September, is not allowed to go to public places and restaurants for 100 days, my outing has been limited as well. Twice in 3 months is actually a minuscule price to pay for him getting better. Yet, your breakfast with the professional menu was soooo good, that we/ I certainly got a treat, as if it was a restaurant but better. (~: THANK YOU! I loved watching the cousins take such an active role- sharing an act of kindness, as they followed you guys-their 'wow' role models. When I found out about the money Sue had raised... tears came to my eyes. WOW again!!! And I'm sorry about her sister... I'm so touched by you!!! THANK YOU again!!!!! Irit Rawraway |
