By Pauline Meridien | Executive Director, BITS ETC
Over the past three months BITS ETC has experienced a significant shortage of staff and volunteers to fulfill all rquirements of the Global Giving contract. Illness accidents and loss of staff has seriously affected our ability to file reports in a timely manner.The coinciding of Autism Awareness Month made these shortages especially vexing. Our service delivery, however, was not affected. Indeed, funds raised on the Global Giving website have been applied as they come in, to keep our riders "back in the saddle."
Three days left in the month, and we are pulling hard to complete all necessary paperwork to keep our appeal going strong. Only with your help can we recover from these set-backs and get our fundraising back on track to make our goal of $30,000,00 for autism scholarships this year.
Please enjoy Chris's story, and share the news of the good work done at BITS ETC with your friends. Your $30.00 donation (ten dollars a day for each of the three days remaining in April) will go a long way in supporting our clients with Autism.
Christopher S. enjoys his time here at BITS (thanks to you, at no charge to his family,) in a program that teaches life and job skills. Through all four seasons of NH, he comes for two hours, once a week to help us care and work with the herd. This will aid in his eventual transition from high school to life after graduation.
Horses have many lessons to teach, including patience perseverance, and practicality. You can help Chris succeed with a donation to BITS Autism Scholarship fund.
