K THE HOME TEAM!
Our neighbours are not just those people who reside
down the street. In the Global Village concept they may
live in the next town, another province or even in another
country. That's why we open our feelin?s towards the
worthwhile appeals in the community.
Because these appeals are of such national interest there
may be a danger that we might forget to support the home
team.
We call ourselves the Association for the Mentally Han-
dicapped. We are a team of area citizens who are trustees
of your contributions to give those whom we serve a new,
meaningful life. With the exception of a small affiliation
fee all of the funds support this local work. And less than
3 percent is spent on administration.
Hope'!
