OCTOBER 2020
A LETTER FROM
ANDREA EVANS, CEO



Because of you last month, VTR raised over $13,000 through our online fundraiser and the sponsorships we received!
 
Thank you to all of you who made this auction a success! From VTR Sponsors listed above, to those that helped in very special ways with donations of service, or auction items, we could not have done it without you.
 
Special thanks to our VTR Annual Celebration Committee: Holly Adame, Debbie Clark, Cherie Darby, Miriam Delfin, Andrea Evans, Charise Hansen, William Johnson, Sandra Kaye, Carolyn Kutka, Lucy Martinez, Jackie Mitchel, Karee Moore, Bonnie Phillips, Jacqueline Porterhouse, Claudia Soria-Delgado and Diane Weber.
 
If you would like to join our committee, fill out a volunteer form on our website under “Get Involved,” and volunteer.
 
This is the month for Halloween Fun and with distancing and remaining cautious; we hope you and yours remain safe.
 
I wait every year as we enter into fall, for the change of the trees from shades of green to shades of red, orange and gold. The Ranch becomes full of fall colors and the crisp cool wind we wait for is hopefully around the corner.
 
This time of year is often difficult on all of our kids in placement. Holidays are around the corner, and sometimes they can’t be with loved ones, especially during this time. Keep them in thought and prayer. If you can, please donate to their Thanksgiving, you can go to our website and choose the donate button. Select the "Holiday," fund for your contribution. Additional Christmas needs will be posted soon!
 
October is Mental Health Awareness MonthTo provide someone help, contact the National Alliance on Mental Health (NAMI) Helpline at: 1-800-950-NAMI or [email protected]. No one should feel like they are alone.
 
Thank you for your continued kindness and care.
