SUBJECT: Why you CAN afford to give
Dear friends:
I encourage you to read the touching story of Jeremy, who is featured in this picture. The story is a sensitive one, and Jeremy is a minor, so we can’t show you his face, but his story demonstrates how just a little kindness can forever change someone’s life for good.
“Hi, I’m Jeremy. At age six, I had to be removed from my parents’ home, due to drug abuse and violence. But I was brought to a wonderful CFC-supported children’s charity that provides temporary shelter for kids like me while they find a permanent home. When I arrived, my shoes were tattered and I had to start school the next day. But thanks to donations like yours, when I came back to the CFC shelter I was presented with the first pair of brand-new shoes I had ever owned. It felt so good! Someone cared about me, and loved me. Now I am in a much better situation, but I will never forget that something as simple as new shoes can make all the difference in the world to someone in need. Thank you!”
Maybe, in reading the stories and emails we’ve sent so far, you’ve thought, “I’d like to help, but I just can’t afford to right now.” I understand – we’ve all been there! Sometimes just coming up with lunch money or paying a utility bill can be a stretch.
Perhaps the best thing about the CFC is the payroll deduction option. By pledging just one or two dollars a paycheck, your pledge will accrue automatically over the year, and before you know it you’ve given enough to buy a new pair of shoes for someone like Jeremy. And remember, the combined total of our CFC contributions will add up to Show A LOT of Love!
