As we all join to celebrate the holiday season, I would like to all of the Mid-Atlantic Municipal Securities Division to join me in supporting the Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation. The Foundation is committed to finding a cure for all childhood cancers. To date, they have funded over 150 research projects at more than 50 institutions across the country! In addition to funding cutting-edge research into finding better treatments and ultimately cures, they also fund nursing grants to improve the quality of life and care of children with cancer. I am asking that each of you contribute to this very worthwhile cause even if you will not be attending our gathering at Union Trust. Please join me in helping those children less fortunate than us this holiday season. Thanks very much, Chris
