Hannah's House/Griffin & Wong Institute

CAMPAIGN UPDATE: 11.27.2019

Hello!

I am extremely grateful to all of you for your incredible generosity and support.  Without you, I could not have reached my fundraising goal in just 1 month and 10 days. Hannah's House will be a brighter and more vibrant place because of your generosity, and Tula the tarantula will enjoy a brand new habitat.  In short, you made a whole bunch of kids and one proud arachnid very happy. 

Any money I collect above my goal will go to fund critical programs at Hannah's House, where I have been volunteering since 6th Grade.  So, I know the importance of the work they do because I am involved with it together with the animal ambassadors.  If you have any money to spare this season, would you please consider donating it to Hannah's House?  You will be helping a kid grow more confident, more resilient, and ready to take on the challenges of this world.

Thank you very much for considering it. Please read the letter from Ms. Susan Griffin, the Executive Director of Hannah's House. You can donate directly to Hannah's House by going to Bit.ly/donateHH, or you can donate here if it is more convenient.

I am very grateful to you all, to my family, friends, school, teachers, coaches, GoFundMe, Hannah's House, and all who donated, and all who will consider a donation.

"Start by doing what's necessary; then do what's possible, and suddenly you are doing the impossible." (Saint Francis of Assisi)

ORIGINAL POST:

Hello!

My name is Brayden and I am 13 years old.  I am a Youth Volunteer in the Human-Animal Bond program at Hannah's House, which is an organization that helps kids and youth cope with divorce or separation of their parents, and build resilience.  As part of a school project, I am raising money to replace the worn-out rugs in the visitation rooms with vibrant and *washable* rugs to create a colorful and positive atmosphere for kids who use these rooms. I would really appreciate it if you would consider donating to my campaign. Or, you can share on social media (or do both!)

Here's a message directly from Hannah's House:

Hannah's House is a family center that provides a safe place for children caught in the middle of challenging family life changes - a place where children can come together in our family visitation rooms with their parents in a nurturing, supportive, solution-focused and protective environment. Our menu of services is designed to support parents and children through family challenges. Our family visitation rooms handle a tremendous amount of traffic and are in need of 5 new Ruggables, sizes 8x10 or 6x9.


The rugs that have been picked for the rooms are these:
