Celebrating NCJW Colorado’s Generous Donors

By Michelle Reiff

As February is here and décor for Valentine’s Day surrounds us wherever we go, I am inspired by this quote by  Antoine de Saint-Exupery (French writer, 1900-1944):

True love begins when nothing is looked for in return.

In that regard, I would like to recognize our 2022 donors to NCJW Colorado. Both members and non-members have shown  “true love” in their generous donations:
