Thank you for your support and incredible work in 2023

 
We ran the numbers, and it’s official — we exceeded our year-end fundraising goal of $1.25 million, bringing in a total of $1,271,722! We are filled with immense gratitude and absolutely blown away by the continued outpouring of support from our volunteers, staff, board members, and donors. 

Many of you stretched your personal giving this year and invited those in your network to do the same. From all of us at CCL: thank you for your generosity of time and treasure, and for relentlessly choosing to be part of the solution. Your support is pivotal in bringing hope and real solutions to the forefront in 2024.
