Dear Glen,
This is what's happening remotely at HopeSpring this week.  

  <https://mcusercontent.com/245009009133a608181d89b73/images/751f5561-63d8-a4af-9f98-4b23354b4a70.png>

Some of you may know that HopeSpring lost 90% of its assets from the recent fire at The Inn of Waterloo.
We owe a huge amount of gratitude to  <https://hopespring.us5.list-manage.com/track/click?u=245009009133a608181d89b73&id=92c6884eb8&e=ece80c31c3> Green Standards who sourced this donation of amazing office furniture from an anonymous donor. Also to our friends at  <https://hopespring.us5.list-manage.com/track/click?u=245009009133a608181d89b73&id=038544968a&e=ece80c31c3> AMJ Campbell who provided the manpower and trucks to move the office furniture into our admin space at The Inn of Waterloo!
This donation has helped our organization immensely, providing our team members with a space to work when we return to in person, as well as allowing us to focus all our community fundraising dollars on our members and the services/programs that we provide to them.
Heartfelt THANK YOU to all!!!

June is the  <https://hopespring.us5.list-manage.com/track/click?u=245009009133a608181d89b73&id=f0dbe2c564&e=ece80c31c3> Great Canadian Giving Challenge (June 1-30) and our goal to provide much-needed funds for our cancer care counselling services. Our goal is to raise $2500, or over 60 hours of much-needed cancer care counselling. 

 <https://hopespring.us5.list-manage.com/track/click?u=245009009133a608181d89b73&id=5cae3f09ce&e=ece80c31c3> 

So Just What is the Great Canadian Giving Challenge?

Your  <https://hopespring.us5.list-manage.com/track/click?u=245009009133a608181d89b73&id=52a858aa2c&e=ece80c31c3> donation to support this fundraising initiative would be two-fold. Here's how, from June 1st to 30th, every $1 donated to HopeSpring's mental health initiative via our giving partner, CanadaHelps.org would give HopeSpring a chance to win a $20,000* donation. A $20,000 would offer over 500 hours of cancer care counselling or almost a year's worth of services.

Please consider a donation, every dollar counts. Ahead of time we thank you for your support. You are making a difference in our community.
