Please extend this thank you message to all the many people in Belleville and all the surrounding towns who help us throughout the year.

The Christmas season of giving and receiving gifts has come and gone, but it never ends at our Pregnancy Care Center in Belleville. The generosity of all the churches, schools, organizations and individual donors never ends at our center (located across from St. Elizabeth's Hospital) as we observe all the caring gifts we have received for our needy clients.

Our greatest donor is St. Elizabeth's Hospital because it provides us with our office space, storage areas, pregnancy tests, utilities and furnishings. We could not remain open without its help.

We offer our heartfelt thanks to all who have helped us to save babies' lives and assisted more than 3,000 needy families. Because of our caring donors and volunteers we are able to continue our work. Thanks once again for the donations throughout the year and most recently at Christmas.

We will celebrate our 30th anniversary on March 16 at the McCormick Center with a dinner/auction. This event not only honors families but helps pay our liability insurance as well.
