I would not be doing my job if I did not remind you that NaLA is a non-profit organization; the success of our efforts are reliant on the contributions of your donations. Because of this, we ask that everyone contribute to that extent they can; donate what you can, when you can, as often as you can. Each and every donation helps the Lifeline community of which makes up NaLA, our members, and lifeline recipients everywhere.
