Our Sponsor a Line Summer Fundraiser is live! We have a big goal to cover 6 months of operational expenses by September. Every little bit helps - a $2 donation funds us for 1 hour. A $48 donation means one more day of Telecare, to keep our 24/7 distress line up and running for those in our community who need a listening ear. Follow along on social media, or check out our Progress Bar for weekly updates on the Make a Donation page of our website.
