Hello <span contenteditable="false" data-custom-variable="{{firstname}}" fr-original-class="fr-deletable styled-tag-chip" fr-original-style="" style="color: rgb(42, 42, 196); overflow-wrap: anywhere; user-select: none; background-color: rgb(248, 248, 255); border: 1px solid rgb(191, 191, 255); border-radius: 4px; margin: 0px; padding: 1px 8px; font-size: 11px; display: inline-block; box-sizing: inherit;">First name, Thank you so much for your recent, generous donation to the Shining Abilities Day Program Outings Fund. When a flood damaged our facility and forced us to undergo extensive restorations, our biggest worry was how to keep our participants engaged, active, and connected.&nbsp; Your support has turned a challenging situation into an incredible opportunity. Because of you, our participants aren&#39;t stuck waiting for renovations to finish&mdash;they are out in the community, exploring new places, and making wonderful memories together. Your generosity is directly funding the transportation, admission fees, and resources needed to keep our group moving, shining, and thriving in the community during this transition. We are incredibly grateful for your partnership and your commitment to our mission. You are a vital part of the Shining Abilities family! If you would like to contribute further to our cause, contact us to become a volunteer, or spread the word about our mission! With deepest gratitude, Jenny Simpson &amp; Jessy Findleyinfo@shiningabilities.org
