We need your help and we need it prior to January 2009! We are a 100% fundraising based non-profit organization with no guaranteed source of income. Due to the current economic climate, we are now facing a budgetary shortfall which puts our resources and ability to advocate for the abused and neglected children of Delaware County in jeopardy. We need your support. We have served Delaware County children for 16 years and we now look to this community to pull us through this crisis and to ensure that no children are turned away from the advocacy that they need to ensure their safety and well-being. Please consider making a financial donation to our organization. It costs $2000 to provide advocacy for one child for one year. Donors will also be listed on our website.
