A message of gratitude from Lighthouse United Methodist Church of Boca Grande

On behalf of the Mission Committee here and our entire congregation, let me pass on to [the] generous congregants of the Trinity United Methodist Church our heartfelt thanks for your support of our IAN Response campaign. In total we collected and then distributed through the Gulf Coast Community Foundation (GCCF) over $190,000 to front-line not-for-profits in the hard­ hit S. Sarasota, Charlotte and DeSoto County area. Of this total, the fine people of TUMC provided $23,350 to become one of our largest donors!

I have attached a list of agencies who received this money. They were vetted by GCCF for both need and access to the people in need.

Please know that we regard you as true partners in this effort, and recognize the trust you placed in us.

Our very best wishes to you and your generous donors for Sharing the Light of Jesus Christ.
Warm regards,
Peter and Elsa
Co-Chairs of the Mission Committee
