This week's friends are Debra Anstandig
& Special Friend Allisa Gold

We think so much about the daily
needs of special-needs children. But
we have their future in mind, too.
Futures that should contain
fond memories of childhood
friendships.
The Friendship Circle
brings together the 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
young people who believe
that friendships are some-
thing to be charished and
remembered. We need you.
Please call the Friendship
Circle today. Who knows? You
may see a picture of you
and a friend here some day.
