Dear friends of Cooper Square,

As the year comes to an end, the Cooper Square Committee can take pride in our many achievements, large and small, in 2011 (see highlights below).  However, with government budget cuts and tougher competition for foundation grants, we are struggling to reach our fundraising goals even as the demand for our services continues to grow.  We also have a number of exciting initiatives in the works that we need to fund in 2012.  We urge you to consider a donation of $10, $25, $100 at year end.  All the best to you and your family during the Holiday Season and in the new year!
