Finding a true friend is the greatest
treasure. True friendship never wears
out. It won't fade away or become
tiresome. But forspecial-
needs children, true friend-
ship can be hard to find.
The Friendship Circle
brings together children
who need friends, and teens
who want to be friends.
But we need drivers to
get these teens to the homes

of the children who need them. And
we need donations, in any amount,
to fund all our important programs.
But most of all, we need
friends. Young people who
believe that friendship is the
most precious gift they
could give. We need you.
Please call the Friendship
Circle today. Who knows? You
may see a picture of you
and a friend here some day.
