From the Desk of
Dr. J. Perkins
Dear FRIEND & Partner:
Happy New Year!!!!!!!!!
I take this time to pause to say thank you for
sharing
your resources, volunteers, time, and talents with us during year 2009. Now as we prepare for 2010, we celebrate the New Year by reflecting upon stellar accomplishments that would not have occurred without your help.
These accomplishments include
- providing resources to over 1000 children and over 800 families,
- escorting over twelve groups of college students from American University, George Mason, and the University of Maryland to visit incarcerated youth at both the New Beginnings and Youth Services Rehabilitative Detention Centers,
- awarding the Malissa B. Perkins Scholarships in June to three students graduating from high school and going to college,
- giving away school supplies to 300 KIDZ in August at the Back to School Rally,
- furnishing 400 Baskets to families at the Thanksgiving Rally in November, and
- providing at the December 22nd Toy Give Away Rally over 3000 toys to children living in the community, shelters, and prisons, and to various citywide book clubs.
We at World Missions say on behalf of the families and KIDZ who benefited from your generosity,
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
