THANK YOU!
As sponsors, donors and supporters of CLH Foundation community
engagement and fundraising initiatives, you are valued partners in our focus
on the quality of life and provision of opportunities for CLH-supported
individuals, including children, youth, adults and seniors.
Highlights of your impact over the past year include:
Commitment to Care underwrites the annual cost of covering unfunded
medical and personal hygiene expenses for the 90 adults who live in CLH
DSS, a $110,000 commitment by CLHF and its generous donors.
Bridging the Gap benefits individuals in CLH’s Supported Independent Living
(SIL) program; their monthly government stipend of $1162 has remained
unchanged for decades, and with housing and cost of living expenses on an
impossible rise, this CLHF initiative regularly provides practical meaningful
support in the form of grocery cards, care hampers, and household essentials.
Foundations for Success helps individuals supported by CLH DSS to access
critical items for health and well-being when no other funds are available.
These include assistive devices, specialized medical or dental treatment,
basic needs, and educational opportunitieshousehold essentials.
The King Street Project commitment by the Board of CLH Foundation will
transform our 283 King St building into a purpose-built program space
to support individuals who are served by three vital CLH DSS programs:
Supported Independent Living (SIL), Supported Employment Program
(SEP) and Transitional Aged Youth (TAY). The $154,000 contribution by CLH
Foundation to CLH Developmental Support Services for this project was made
possible by generations of donors, including a bequest by philanthropist
Robbert Hartog, and will fully cover the costs of the planned renovations
