As the year draws to a close, we pause to reflect on the lives changed, the communities strengthened, and the hope restored—all because of your generosity.

This year has brought immense challenges around the world. Families displaced by conflict, children facing hunger, and communities rebuilding after disasters have all needed urgent support. Because you chose to give, they did not face these hardships alone.

As year-end approaches, many supporters are reviewing their financial and tax plans. Before December 31, you have a powerful opportunity to provide hope while aligning your personal financial goals. Gifts of appreciated assets (e.g. stock, mutual funds, etc.) and gifts from retirement assets may help ease the burden that falls when the tax forms start arriving early next year.

Remember, gifts sent by mail must be postmarked by December 31 to be recorded in 2025. Gifts made online, by credit card, or in any other form must be received by December 31 to be recorded in 2025. Our team is standing by to assist with last minute gifts. 

Thank you for standing with us throughout this year, and for considering how your compassion can continue changing lives—today, tomorrow, and for generations to come.
