Story

Dear Friends -- 

Three years ago, on October 6th, 2018, we shared our wedding vows with each other. We also shared some of your generous gifts directly to Hortons Kids, a Washington, DC organization that we found after careful research. They align with our values to ensure kids, especially those from neighborhoods with fewer resources, get their 'fair shot' in life. It's not an easy thing to do and we're impressed with Horton's Kids work.

Fast forward to 2021 and we are thrilled again to help raise money for "H.K." This we're, we've gone a step further and taken a leadership role for their "Give Thanks & Give Back" annual reception, agreeing to raise $5,000. 

The participants enrolled in Hortons Kids programs have big dreams and the potential needed to achieve them. Your donation will help the staff adapt their programs to the changing needs of participants from early-childhood to high-school graduation, ensuring they are equipped to break a cycle of multi-generational poverty. 

Thank you in advance for your support. Please let us know if you have any questions about my campaign, my goal, or Horton's Kids. Please also take the time to share this campaign on Facebook and Twitter, which sometimes can be just as impactful as a donation.

With thanks -- Rosa and Aaron
