Regional Director’s Message

Dear Friends,

As Thanksgiving is upon us we have many blessings to count. We are grateful to all of you for your support to our NPH homes and children. Because of you, we were able to increase our national giving last year to NPH and we are on track to increase our support once again this year. Your generosity truly makes a difference in the lives of our kids.

Regionally, we are thankful for the outstanding team of people who give their time, talent and generosity to supporting the Upper Midwest region’s commitment to NPH. Our special events, Celebrando a los Niños Gala, Faces of Hope and the Sizzling Soiree were successful and a lot of fun. Our sponsorship and major gift program continue to grow with new supporters.

I am excited to e-introduce you to our new Development Coordinator, Natalie Hursey. She spent a year in Guatemala working as the Volunteer Coordinator for the Education for the Children. She is enthusiastic about our mission, volunteers and kids. Natalie can be reached at 651-482-1703 or nhursey@nphusa.org.

Please join us at our first annual Gallery Viewing & Voting on December 3rd. There is no charge for attending, but we’d appreciate an rsvp to plan accordingly. For more information, please click here. Additionally, we are planning a trip to Honduras next summer. We’d love to have you join us and meet some of the wonderful pequeños at NPH Honduras.

We are thankful for the 3400 children we are privileged to work aside and support. Each day, we are reminded to have gratitude for all that we have in our lives. We hope you have a wonderful, relaxing and thankful holiday.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Molly Boyum
Upper Midwest Regional Director
