MOVING FORWARD
Don’t Give Up
We received some wonderful art by survivors as we squeaked through Year 3 with a less-than-ideal fiscal outlook, and personal family illness and death.

As always, the current Income/Expense report is available to the public. Though our intentions are always to provide as many services as possible to support Arachnoiditis Survivors in their Creative Wellness Efforts; we are limited by our fiscal abilities and physical resources.
