THINGS WE'RE TALKING ABOUT   What’s going on across the pond?
It seems like just yesterday our Annual Campaign came to a close — actually, it was yesterday! So while we tally our final numbers, we just wanted to say a big “thank you” for our amazing year. We had 1,472 unique participants helping our cause by joining us at 28 events over the past 12 months. We’ll share our (hopefully, record-setting) 2016 CJP Annual Campaign total with you as soon as we have it. THINGS WE'RE SERIOUS ABOUT  Congrats to some innovative thinkers
