Why we need your help.

• Over 296 children and families came to Andre’ Bosse Centers in need of our services in 2007.
• All of the Centers’ services and programs are provided at no cost to those we serve. (unless payment is dictated by Family Court- under 8%)
• 85¢ of every $1 donated goes to child abuse programs and services to help children and families.

The numbers are staggering.

• 1 in 4 girls will be sexually abused by the age of 18.
• 1 in 6 boys will be sexually abused by the age of 18.
• There are nearly 3 million reports of abuse each year – that’s one every 10 seconds.
• The rate of child abuse is estimated to be 3 times greater than is reported.

What will your donation mean to the Andre’ Bosse Centers?
