Many Thanks to Our SupportersWith the financial crisis still a present issue, The Conflict Center would like to thank all those who contributed to the success of our year-end appeal. We recognize that our donors are facing difficult financial times and are grateful for the support we received in such a challenging period.
Support is the factor that allows The Conflict Center to continue succeeding in its promotion of peace and nonviolence. Robert Burton once said, “A dwarf standing on the shoulders of a giant may see farther than a giant himself”. The support and backing that we receive from our donors and friends contributes immeasurably to the expansion of our vision and the growing success of our organization.
Thank you!
Ron Ludwig
