You may remember receiving a letter and/or email from Tom Finnegan about Kaleidoscope's budget for next fiscal year beginning 7/1 and the gap that needs to be filled. All of us at Kaleidoscope - the board, staff, volunteers - remain confident that we can fill the $250,000 gap. 
 
This gap is $70,000 more than we currently raise - that's $191 a day. By "selling" 365 days at $191 each, we WILL meet our goal. So far, 53 generous donors (you know who you are!) have bought a combined 55 days! 
  
THANK YOU!
 
The campaign we call "Seize a Day" ensures that Kaleidoscope programs for kids remain solid and stable, meeting the complex needs children recovering from abuse present, providing the services they need to become healthy young adults.
 Seize a day!!!
This is a good start! 

You can help Kaleidoscope make this goal:
  1. renew your gift at the same level as last year, if possible.
  2. donate an additional day ($191) or more if you can.
  3. ask your friends to donate, volunteer or attend an event.
Kaleidoscope is a community effort that pays back Chicago many times over. As the Kaleidoscope case statement says, "For those of us with means and an eye to the future, there is no excuse, no valid reason, not to help abused children."
