Hello friends and neighbors,
The Trinity Child Development Center Annual Yard Sale at 5801 Westminster Drive,
next to the Windsor Park Library, will be Saturday, April 13th.  It begins at 8 
a.m. and lasts until 1 p.m.
For the very first time, Trinity CDC is allowing our friends and supporters
early access to our Spring Marketplace!!   On Friday night, April 12th, for 
only $5,
from 5 to 7 p.m., you can preview what we consider some of our best sale items,
and purchase these items at great prices.  We have collected nice, sometimes 
never-used
items from over 100 families.  These
items include:Yahama keyboard in case with stand and stool     $120Tasco 
telescope                                               $50“Enchanted”

housewares, jewelry,  brand new clothes and shoes
Money raised at this event will support our mission of
providing consistent, quality early care and education to children in our
diverse community.  


Like so many others who struggle with the day to day
challenges of modern economic reality, several families at Trinity CDC rely on
our Trinity Cares Fund to help keep their children enrolled.  When jobs pay 
less than what it costs to live
in Austin,
families are stretched to the limit; especially when other issues arise
unexpectedly.  A mom who suddenly has to
go to the emergency room, a car that breaks down, a break-up of the family, the
cost of higher education loans; are all examples of situations that our parents
are experiencing.  Recently we received
this letter from a young mom:  “Y’all have
been a safe haven, something that I can depend on whether I can afford it or
not.  My son has had a safe place to grow
and learn and interact with peers.  With
so many troubles in my life, I am so thankful I have Trinity.  Knowing that I 
have support from someone
makes my hectic world feel a little at ease. 
Thank you from the bottom of my heart.”   
The money we raised during Amplify Austin will
go a long way towards helping us meet the needs of our families, but our annual
budget did not anticipate ‘Sequestration,’ which meant  a freeze of all new 
Workforce child care subsidies
for several months - and these subsidies will remain frozen at least until the
summer, leaving many families still in need. 
We know we will continue to consistently provide the best start for
children (regardless of their parents’ ability to pay full tuition) in order to
prepare them for elementary school success, even as it gets more challenging to
do so. 
We need YOU to
participate in our fundraising events so that Trinity CDC can continue to make
a difference to young children who live in difficult, stressful situations. Come
to this very special event and preview
Friday night (and come back on Saturday!) – find a great bargain! We appreciate
all your support!
