Editor, The Times:
Kamloops and the Thompson-Nicola area really is the best place to live, work and play. The people who live here want to provide opportunities for all our citizens to enjoy quality of life, and your donations of dollars and time make that possible.
We are reminded every day of the number of children and youth in our community who play sports, go to camp or have a new friend because of United Way funds. Fewer seniors live in isolation because there are programs and supports for people still living independently.
We see the difference that the Homelessness Action Plan is making not only for people looking for a place to sleep but for people needing help with their day to day challenges.
We are motivated by you, our donors and your willingness to give back and show leadership. Thank you for once again making our campaign such a success and raising $2,172,270 dollars for your neighbours, and in turn making our community better.
Because of you we are able to say “yes” to investing in pivotal programs needed in our communities. We greatly appreciate your continued support and the powerful impact of your gift.
Brenda Aynsley, executive director
Thompson-Nicola-Caribou United Way
