Dear Friends,
The recent shootings and fires of the past month have put shadows on our joy and gratitude. But like a light in the darkness, Embrace-A-Family arrives right on time to bring happiness to all who participate.
This Thanksgiving let's hold each other a little closer and share the love within our hearts.
B'shalom,
Mindy
