After a year's hiatus, I am writing again to ask for donations to the Center for New Americans.  I am especially inspired to ask this year because of the influx of new refugees who are now arriving in our area.  My cohousing community has now formed a Circle of Care for a family of refugees from Honduras and we are enjoying getting to know them and to help them with their transition to this county.  And there are so many new refugees now from Afganistan, Central American, Haiti and elsewhere who will need help in the near future and who could benefit from the services CNA has to offer.  I would like to do my part by joining in this annual "poem-a-thon" and sending you some poems beginning November lst.  And thank you all so much for your generous contributions when I participated in 2018 and 19.
