CERF+ assistance felt like a vote of confidence.

I am writing to let you know how incredibly grateful and moved I am by CERF+’s response to my accident. It came at a time when we were in such a state of shock and uncertainty.The financial help was invaluable as my wife and I waded through medical bills. And, it also felt like a vote of confidence that was such a boost! We feel so fortunate to be part of such a caring community that is both local and national! We have both known what an important resource CERF+ is for artists, but to experience it firsthand powerfully enforces that feeling and connection. Thank you, thank you, thank you for the grant and for the support you provided to our family during this difficult time. I have started to work with clay again – slowly – I have small pinch pots sitting all over the house, which has been fun for our two tiny gals too. I hope to return full force in the New Year.
