Dear Friend,
Our Executive Team has been meeting daily to respond to the growing impact COVID-19 is having on our core programs and employees throughout the state.
This pandemic is significantly affecting our day-to-day operations, and is limiting the ability of our clients and families to access critical services they need to live with health and independence in our community.
Currently, the majority of our programs remain in operation, and due to the nature of the services we offer, we expect to see a significant increase in needs moving forward.
In times of strain, our Targeted Case Management and Military & Veteran Services are in high demand. Our community sees a growing need for accessing supports and resources required to effectively manage children’s mental and physical health needs through our targeted case management, and our veterans are reaching out to us for financial assistance as a last resort when nothing else is available. While we are hopeful government assistance for individuals and businesses is on its way, it won’t be enough, and we need to act now!
Your gift will make an immediate impact on our funding shortage and help us continue to serve thousands of Maine families living with disabilities or special needs. You can help bring relief to people today, and ensure that those who rely on Easterseals each and every day will get the care they need during these uncertain times.
Your gift, of any size, matters. Collectively, we have the power to make a difference and I am confident with your support, we will get through this crisis together.
Regards,
