|
| What Matters. |
|
| We understand that success cannot be measured simply by amounts raised or numbers of people served. Success is measured by real, lasting and positive change. Success isn't the number of meals served to the homeless-it's getting people back on their feet and self-sufficient. It's not the number of children enrolled in day care-it's strong, working families where parents can provide and children can prosper. |
