Dear Kathleen and Hunter,

I would like to introduce you to a wonderful organization called the Wendt
Center for Loss and Healing. The Wendt Center is an amazing organization
that provides critical counseling services to children and families in the
DC metropolitan area who are grieving the loss of a loved one, facing a
life threatening illness or suffering from exposure to violence or other
trauma.

I had mentioned the Wendt Center to Hunter recently as I thought it may be
a place that Halie and the children would  find helpful. The Wendt Center
has a very special place in my family’s hearts as Alex, Gabriel and I were
clients after Karim passed away. We were so blessed to have the support of
the Wendt Center to help us all through such a devastating period in our
lives. It was our therapist, Stephanie, at the Wendt Center who helped the
boys and I focus on being courageous and hopeful after Karim died. She
encouraged us to feel our sadness but then gave us helpful ways to manage
it and carry on. I credit Stephanie for helping us to realize our inner
strength and encourage us to live our lives in a different, yet fulfilling
way.

The Wendt Center not only serves clients like us, but also is strongly
focused on reaching out to children and families in underserved
communities. These efforts have gained significant momentum and the Wendt
Center now has counselors in more than 20 District schools in an effort to
reach the youngest and most vulnerable people who need help.  They are also
increasing their reach to victims of crime and violence throughout the
District in an effort to restore a sense of safety and hope to those whose
lives have been shattered by trauma.

I am writing to ask you to consider supporting the incredibly valuable work
of this organization. Please help the Wendt Center expand its reach and
continue to fulfill its healing mission. I would be extremely grateful if
you would consider joining the Benefit Committee. The commitment asks that
you reach out to friends and colleagues to spread the word about the Wendt
Center and their resources and purchase a ticket to attend the Gala ($350)
or a Sponsorship (please see attached).

It would be very meaningful to have you both join me at the 41st Annual
Benefit on Wednesday, October 26, 2016 at the Four Seasons Hotel in
Georgetown. David Gregory will serve as our emcee and our guest speaker
will be announced shortly. I look forward to hearing back from you soon.

Love,

Jennifer
