Purpose of the TelethonThe holiday season is here. Most of us have exciting plans for the next few weeks as we will get together with families and friends over delicious feasts and get much needed rest and relaxation in our cozy, warm homes.
There are tens of millions who are not this fortunate. They live through the same season all year long, season of poverty, sickness and deprivation. They live one day at a time. Each day begins with one thought, how to provide for themselves and their families by tonight and each day ends with the thought about what will happen tomorrow.
Like every year millions of Americans will share the joys of the holiday season by generously donating towards charitable causes. Humanity First also needs your support during this holiday season. Please join us for our telethon and see for yourself how your support is changing lives.
