to the giving tree. I'm just a coordina-

t iu letter said, "You have been so
!_:+ caring, generous and helpful to
my family. I want you to know that all
of your efforts are deeply appreciated
and I want t o thank you for everything
you' ve done for us. You have helped to
restore my faith in the basic goodness
of people. It must be very satisfying for
you to be able to help as many people
as you do.
" I just wanted you to know all of
your work is for a good cause, and that
you are very much appreciated. I don't
know if anyone has ever thanked you
for it or told you how much it means to
them, but I want-to. This has meant the
world to me."
