PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

Christmas is a time of giving and receiving. More and more I notice that some families, businesses and corporate representatives take this opportunity to direct their giving to charitable causes to receive the Spirit of the Season in return!

In 2009, Children at Risk gave back to our Community throughout the year with Group Supports, Ticket Donations and events like the Annual Family Picnic. In order to be able to continue, we need to receive donations, grants and gifts-in-kind of merchandise or certificates.

Even though 2009 was a tough year for Children at Risk – we continued to offer supports for the Autism Community, even some new ones like a Summer Science Camp! Help us to help you, our families, by encouraging those whom you know to support the cause of Autism through a donation to Children at Risk. Some options are:
 Direct cash Gifts or Gifts of Securities
 Corporate Matching Gifts
 In-Memoriam Gifts to remember a loved one or good friend
 Planned Giving and Identifying Children at Risk in a bequest
 Name Children at Risk as your designated charity in United Way Campaigns
 Renew your Annual $20 Children at Risk Membership
 Consider hosting a 3rd-party Event or Activity for Children at Risk

We know that many of you already support Children at Risk in many of these areas and for this we give you heartfelt thanks! May your holidays bring you peace, joy and happiness with best wishes for 2010!

Paul Lacroix,

Children at Risk, Board Chair
