Holiday Update & Year End Appeal, from Nancy Floy

Posted on November 15, 2019

Dear Heartwood Community,

We send you warm greetings from all of us at Heartwood as we enter the holiday season. This past year has been one filled with joy and celebrations as we honored Heartwood’s 20th anniversary. We began the year with our fun Holiday Healthcare Fair, followed by our educational Spring Healthcare Symposium and topped it all off with our Summer Solstice Celebration with local food and music under the tents in our parking lot. The common thread running through this year is our deep gratitude to you and our broader community as we continue to grow the reach of holistic healthcare.  

Year-End Appeal

We know that this holiday season you have many choices for philanthropic giving – we’d be especially grateful if you’d consider donating to Heartwood under the auspices of Mindrol Osel Ling Meditation Center, a 501(c)3 non profit. With your help, Heartwood will continue to be a place of refuge, community and the highest quality of healing. You can donate online or write a check to Mindrol Osel Ling and send it to 1818 Dempster, Evanston 60202 attention End of Year Appeal.  Your timely donation by end of this year would be so appreciated and you will receive a tax documentation letter in return.

Looking Ahead to 2020

With the help of your support, we will continue the services and support through our Heartwood Cancer Program in which we offer free holistic healthcare to any low-income person living with cancer. In addition, we are preparing for another year of community outreach through the upcoming December 7th Holiday Fair, the Spring Symposium, and Mindrol Osel Ling has a variety of Dharma and meditation activities that enrich the entire community. Finally, we are always appreciative for funds for our ongoing roof repair work. Together, we face 2020 with optimism, love and gratitude!

Happy Thanksgiving to You and Your Family!

Warmly,

Nancy Floy, Founder & Director, Heartwood
