We’re writing to request your help with our upcoming fundraising event, Knight to Shine, scheduled for April 8, 2017. The event will feature live and silent auctions, a program book as well as dinner and entertainment in a fun social setting at DiBurros in Haverhill. The last seven years have been a resounding success!  We hope you will consider a donation to once again help us raise much needed funds. We would not be able to continue to do what we do for our kids without your help.

 We are extremely fortunate to have the Joseph N. Hermann Youth Center in our community. Numerous programs and services are provided to the children of North Andover both within and outside the walls of our facility. Private donations have allowed both programming and the facility maintenance needed to effectively reach those in need.

Some of the key activities that our community has come to rely on include:

• Social service, recreation and counseling programs serving over 3000 children. All outside program costs and all operating expenses are funded from membership fees and donations.
• Youth-at-risk programs dealing with anorexia/bulimia, drug abuse and alcohol intervention.
• Thanksgiving and Holiday Drives which provides needy families in the community with holiday meals and gifts.
• Full scholarships given to over 100 kids who are unable to afford the annual membership. Our policy is that no child will be denied membership due to their inability to afford the fee.

We hope you will be able to help us with our fundraising efforts this year and thank you for considering donating to our upcoming event.
