As always, these numbers I present each month are uplifting because they tell how much YOU have helped, enlightening because they tell how much need there is, and they are frightening because they show how much work still needs to be done and how much funding is needed.

I am happy to announce Annie's Angels has received a grant from the NH State Council for the Arts in the amount of $5400.00 to fund 11 sessions of Drumming for the Elderly; 6 sessions at Cornerstone VNA and 5 sessions at Homemakers Adult Day Out Program all led by professional musician and friend of Annie's Angels Randy Armstrong, (pictured left). 

Special thanks to WHYM for allowing Arts for Angels to hold a Sip and Art event which raised $280.00 and awareness to 10 new Angels. WHYM also donated $55. From their special anniversary pour. The beer, North Coast BA Old Rasputin XX 2017, was $25 per pour and very rare and very delicious. WHYM donated $5 per pour to Annie’s Angels totaling $55.00.

If you, your company, or organization would like to learn more about Annie's Angels I am always happy to meet and talk about who we are, what we do and where we are moving into the future.

I am honored to announce the opening of The Amanda Ranauro Autism Assistance Fund. Amanda Ranauro will be remembered for her love of family, friends, and vocation, teaching children on the autism spectrum.

After her untimely passing, Amanda’s family made a commitment to honor her memory through the Amanda Ranauro Charity Golf Tournament. The money raised would be used to help families on the spectrum have a better life. 

The Amanda Ranauro Autism Assistance Fund has been created and will operate under the Annie's Angels umbrella, with continued guidance and input from the Ranauro & Gianino families, allowing Annie's Angels to fund therapies and equipment like Hippotherapy, music therapy, provide acoustic & sensory suppression and compression equipment as well as teardrop swings, weighted vests & blankets, compression vests and pajamas, chew toys, sensory body socks and more.

While this program will be funded mainly through the Amanda Ranauro Charity Golf Tournament held each June, we need YOUR help to remain active throughout the year.
 
One of the most humbling phrases I hear when Angel Families send a thank you is; "I just want you to know, the help you have given my family got me in the right direction and was a huge help."  All of our Annie's Angels successes are because of YOU, the Angels Among Us who give generously and give often. Without YOU we are nothing.
