"Each donation is urgently needed," says Betty Hunter, Executive Ditector.". The funds received go back into your community to help in many ways. For ex- ample, the Family Asthma Program benefits each metnber of the family. Hunter says there is a noticeable dif- ference in the families after attending the program.
