In 2017... Thanks to You!

It is officially 2018! As January begins to wind down, we can’t help but look back in 2017 and say thank you. Together we accomplished so much and are filled with gratitude for your generosity and support. Here are a few highlights of what your dollars and support accomplished in 2017.

Locally, your support has contributed significantly to building a healthy community here in the Central Valley.
