From today’’s Northwest Herald:
To the Editor:
The holiday spirit was especially strong this year. After a very tough year filled with state and federal budget shortfalls and local economic woes, Turning Point approached this holiday season fearful of what Santa might have in store for us.
But I never should have doubted McHenry County. The generosity of the businesses, churches, groups and individual supporters of Turning Point has been magnificent. I am happy to report our clients in need were able to spend a merrier Christmas due to their generosity. Thanks for all the hats, gloves, scarves and especially the gift cards that have made sure that this Christmas was a merry (and warm) one.
And thank you to all who sent financial donations to help us continue our programs and services, also. It’s not too late – the need continues all year round.
You can mail a check to Turning Point, P.O. Box 723, Woodstock, IL 60098, or call 815-338-8081 for more information.
Thanks you all, and Happy New Year to all.
Jane Farmer
Executive Director, Turning Point
