TREE-MAIL

Dear Tree of Hope, I want to thank you so much for the wonderful Christmas program and presents. My children were overjoyed and they discovered they were not the only children who have lost their father. Many time they have felt left out and different from other kids because their father is gone forever. But they know that they are not strange or this has just happened to them. The presents were right on time-I had already told the children that they would have to wait until after Christmas to get "a" present and now they have several nice presents and my youngest said "Daddy sent us these" Please let me know if I can help out some kind of way. Thank you and may God Bless this wonderful organization. Love Valerie Jones

Dear Tree of Hope, me and the kids thank all of you for helping us with the school clothes, many people don't realize that we will never have the "breadwinner" back in our family and we fend for ourselves! I couldn't afford to do this on my own, I have the two oldest children to buy school clothes for as well as feeding and clothing all four. Since Jamie was killed I now have to buy everything he used to buy and pay all the bills - it has been real hard and I really appreciate what you guys have done. It is a blessing you have come to our aid....Michelle Saunders

To the Tree of Hope; I know that we have said thanks for all the services that you have helped us with, but we want you to know what it means to us because it has been a real strain, we are all banding together to take care of the children my brother left behind, when they senselessly took his life six years ago. They didn't think about these children or us when they pulled that trigger, we are the victims-we are so thankful for the Tree of Hope...maybe one day the violence will stop! Sincerely, Ta-Tasha Monk

Dear Ms. Young and the Tree of Hope, I thank you so much for the scholarship! Since Richard was killed I often felt like giving up-but everytime I look at the kids I know that I can't. Working, going to school and trying to raise five kids is a very tall order, but with the help of the Tree of Hope I know we can make it! The twins were only babies so they probably won't remember Richard-but I will help to keep his memory alive. The children enjoyed the art program and were able to talk freely about Richard with the psychologists there and the other kids...thank you so much and please inform us of any other programs you will have. Love, Mercedes
