Neighbors,
I am organzing an effort with Rick Swartz from Bloomfield-Garfield Corp.
to provide financial assistance to families that are in dire need.
Rick was an important advisor when I first organized the Highland Park CDC
in 1993, and, most importantly, is an intense advocate for the less fortunate.
Rick works daily with families that face significant challenges. He has already identified
a family that needs help to avoid eviction. The matriarch of the family
is battling cancer that caused her to have to quit work. Yet, she is still trying to
provide for an adult brother, niece and nephew whose mother recently passed.
This family needs approx. $250 a month to stay in their home.
Please let me know if you are interested in learning more about how to help
this family and the others that can use our help.
Thanks for your consideration.
Tom Dickson
