A Time for Everything

Below is a passage you may have heard before.

There is a time for everything. . . .     
a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot. . . .
a time to tear down and a time to build,
a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance. . . .
a time to love and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace.
 
If I look back at the time we spent together this past year, I find many parallels in these words.
  • In Ethiopia, 28 homes were destroyed by fire … and you helped us rebuild them.
  • In India, Maria was abandoned in the garbage by her mother … and you gave her shelter and loving care.
  • In Italy, unaccompanied minors left war or extreme poverty in their countries … and you gave them hope again in our towns.
Together we have accomplished so much. I invite you to click here to read our 2017-2018 Annual Report. As you will read, your generous support of A Chance In Life has allowed us to turn a time of despair, mourning and fear into a time of hope, peace and joy for so many children in need. This is the time to celebrate!

Gabriele Delmonaco

P.S. Should you have some extra time, our Summer Newsletter is now also available online here. 

P.P.S. There is a time for everything, and the time has come for us to retire the title of "Note from Our President." You will now be receiving your monthly updates from me personally. I look forward to sharing many more stories of how your support is changing the lives of our young citizens!
