Whether it’s $5 or $50 per month, it’s a great way to make a big difference without having to enter your data more than once. Mental health is one of our three pillar areas for support. This season, we are focused on the mental health of our students who have not been able to attend school in nearly a year. With your help, we can provide much-needed counseling support for students who cannot afford private therapy. <a href="https://healthcarefoundation.net/get-involved/donate-monthly-sustainer-gift/"><span style="color: #ed008c;"><strong><u>Please consider becoming a monthly sustainer</u></strong></span></a> to help these students for 2021 and beyond.</p> <p><a href="https://healthcarefoundation.net/get-involved/donate-monthly-sustainer-gift/">MATCH MY DECEMBER GIFT</a></p> <p>With gratitude,</p> <figure class="wp-block-image is-resized"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" src="https://healthcarefoundation.net/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/Kim-Bender-Sig-small-300x118.jpg" alt="Kim Bender" class="wp-image-8051" width="172" height="68"/></figure> <p>Kim Bender<br>Executive Director</p> <p>P.S.
