Dear Nerac Earth Teammates,
I want to make a difference in a child’s life – a child dealing with serious illness. The Hole in the Wall Gang Camp has been helping to raise the spirits of children in New England hospitals. The “HOP” Hospital Outreach Program provided over 15,000 bedside visits in 2008.
Seriously ill children experience pain, fear, loneliness and a loss of control. The Camp’s Hospital Outreach Specialists are trained in counseling and hospital protocol, in addition to their artistic area of expertise. They share drawing, painting, crafts, music and storytelling to aid in the healing process by building hope and a sense of accomplishment in seriously ill hospitalized youngsters.
Through my participation in AngelRide 2009, I am supporting Angel Charitable Trust’s mission of helping children with cancer and other serious illnesses and conditions by opening windows of happiness during their most intense period of treatment with its sponsorship of The Hole in the Wall Gang Camp’s Hospital Outreach Program.
100% of your donation will be presented to the Hole in the Wall Gang Camp’s, “HOP”, Hospital Outreach Program. Please help me reach (or even exceed!) my goal.
It is faster and easier than ever to support this great cause by making your tax-deductible donation online. If you prefer, you can mail your check, payable to “Angel Charitable Trust” to PO Box 1013, Old Lyme, CT 06371.
Whatever you can give will help – it all adds up! I greatly appreciate your support and will keep you posted on my progress.
