Joining Together for Change in 2020

 

We offer our deepest thanks to our North Carolina community and look forward to a healthy and hopeful New Year.

 
 
 
Dear colleagues and friends,

As the holidays are upon us, everyone at the Kate B. Reynolds Charitable Trust offers our appreciation to you, our community. Your collective efforts to expand access to health care and provide essential, life-saving services during the Covid-19 crisis have energized us to keep working for change in 2021 and beyond.

This is a critical moment to come together.

At the Trust, our work to respond to the Covid-19 crisis will not let up until everyone has access to the health and human services needed to thrive during this challenging time and beyond. Our immediate, flexible Covid-19 response funding to date totals more than $5.2 million. Over the past year, we invested nearly $23 million to support our grantees and partners doing innovative, promising work.

Now is the time for hope and action.

I’m hopeful for 2021 and what we can do together to address the root causes of racial inequity and change the systems to improve the health, education, and quality of life for all the residents of our great state of North Carolina. The road may not be easy, and it may not be short. But if not now, when?

Wishing you and your family a joyous and safe holiday,

Dr. Laura Gerald, MD, MPH
President, Kate B. Reynolds Charitable Trust
