I've been thinking a lot about community - what it means, what's my role in it, and how can I contribute and help support it locally. Ultimately it comes down to us to pull together and lift one another up and out of our daily struggles. So I am starting here by running for CAMBA and hope that you'll join me by donating, because we need to take care of one another.

What is CAMBA, what do they provide, and who do they help?
CAMBA is a non-profit agency that provides services that connect people with opportunities to enhance their quality of life. It is a community of clients, staff, volunteers, donors, neighbors and partners who work together to build an inclusive New York City, where all children and adults have access to the resources and supports they need to thrive. Many New Yorkers face daily hurdles such as housing instability, living with HIV/AIDS, language barriers, domestic violence, and insufficient job skills. Since 1977, CAMBA has helped New Yorkers transform their lives by providing holistic programs to individuals, families and communities.
CAMBA takes a comprehensive approach to helping individuals, families and communities thrive, offering integrated programs in: Economic Development, Education & Youth Development, Family Support, Health, Housing, and Legal Services. Our programs build inclusive communities where New Yorkers have the support they need to reach their full potential.
CAMBA reaches more than 45,000 individuals and families each year, including 10,000 youth. We serve a diverse cross section of New Yorkers from new mothers in Brownsville to job seekers in the Rockaways. More than half of our clients are immigrants and refugees from around the globe. Over 85% of our families are in living in poverty, reflecting the challenges faced by nearly 1.7 million New Yorkers today.
PLEASE TAKE A MOMENT TO DONATE AND TAKE ACTION IN YOUR COMMUNITY TODAY!!!
Much Love and All Respect,
Deanna Nairns
