Thank you to everyone who continues to support HopeSpring. We're coming down to the end of our January goal of $21,000, having raised almost $11,000. We have a special thank you to Words Worth Books and their customers. 100% of the proceeds of every copy of Stewart McLean's Christmas at the Vinyl Cafe sold went to help those cancer patients and their families. They raised $2048! Thank you!
