A Gift to The Retreat Keeps on Giving
For decades we’ve been asking the same question, “What do I buy for someone who has everything?” Well, maybe the answer has been to adjust your focus to people who aren’t so fortunate. This year, The Retreat in East Hampton is enticing kind-hearted sons, daughters and children to make a Mother’s Day donation to the organization, which supports abuse survivors and their families by providing them resources to escape and start life anew. For each gifted donation, The Retreat will mail Mom or the person of your choice a handwritten notecard letting them know a gift has been made in their honor and wishing them a wonderful day. Text “momsday” to 91999 or visit allagainstabuse.org to donate.
