Bloomberg today carries a nice report on Hetrick-Martin‘s annual benefit tomorrow night:
“With donations on the decline since April 2008, the institute is counting heavily on the gala to plug budget holes and keep vital programs afloat.
“’We’ve taken a hit,’ Krever said. The gala ‘is incredibly important for us to cultivate a relationship with donors.’
“Hetrick-Martin hopes its patrons and gala guests will help it raise $1 million for such programs as mental-health counseling, after-school arts-and-culture activities, meals and showers. Declining donations for Hetrick-Martin cut its budget this year by about $1 million to $4.2 million.”
