With spring  around the corner
We would like to invite you to join us at The Wish Projects 6th Annual Golf Classic.  This year's event will be held at Andover Country Club on Monday, May 15th. It will be a great time for a great cause! For over a decade, it has been the mission of The Wish Project to serve the needs of homeless and at-risk families in the Greater Lowell area, helping them get back on their feet. We rely on the generous support of donors to fulfill our mission. We hope you will help us by supporting our golf tournament, one of our biggest fundraisers of the year. Register online at 6th Annual Golf Classic. Think Spring and register now!
 
Some thoughts from the Executive Director  on Facebook about The Wish Project, it's mission, the people and the work that goes on behind the news. Follow the above link to read David Fitzgerald's post.

Beyond basic necessities
the agencies also need simple educational toys to take into their client's homes to help stimulate babies and toddlers to develop successfully. We created our BITS Bag project to help fill this important need. If you can help with any of these items please contact Jill at [email protected] to let her know
how you can help. Our goal is to give these early education toys out to 500 children in Merrimack Valley in April. These BITS bags will go to therapist workers so that they can leave the toys in the home for the child and parent to play and practice between visits. Last year we gave out 600+ bags to families in Merrimack Valley. Follow this link for more information about the BITS Bags project. You can help by donating filled bags, collect items, or sponsor a bag by making a financial
contribution and we will supply a bag in your name, to honor a family member or in the name of your company. If you prefer not to shop follow the link to Donate Now . If you prefer to do your shopping online you can order from our BITS Bag Amazon wish list and ship directly to us.

David and Claudia Lafauci for 6 new winter jackets
Karlene and Tommy Farley for several small kitchen appliances and diapers
