Expand the number of people we serve ($25,000)
Solutions at Work used to be open every other Saturday. When we stopped opening on Saturdays we lost two-thirds of our participants. While we have added new members since that time, we anticipate at least tripling our members if we were open on Saturdays. If you wish to designate your donation please email the business manager here, otherwise thank you for contributing to this effort.
