My very best wishes to everyone here at tonight’s Gala. And let me offer a special round of applause to The Actors Fund for all it has meant to our industry. Bravo! Kind regards, Norm Lewis DECEMBER 1, 2014 5 LETTERS FROM BROADWAY! December 1, 2014 Dear Friends, I want to send my heartfelt congratulations to The Actors Fund on receiving The Salvation Army’s Pinnacle of Achievement Award. How wonderful that this great organization, which has gallantly performed “backstage” for so many decades, will be in the spotlight. As an actor, I can’t think of any recipient more deserving, or more appropriate, considering the sim- ilarities in the missions of these two beloved organizations. For people in need, crisis or transition, The Actors Fund and The Salvation Army have been there, treating all who turn to them with dignity and respect. I wish I could be there to share in the festivities of your Gala and to give my standing ovation to The Fund as it is honored, but please know I am with you in spirit. With warmest regards, Vanessa Williams 6 THE SALVATION ARMY GREATER NEW YORK DIVISION 67TH ANNUAL GALA December 1, 2014 Dear Friends, Congratulations to The Actors Fund on receiving The Salvation Army’s Pinnacle of Achievement Award. It’s heartwarming to see these two great organizations stand side-by-side and take a bow for the incredible difference they have made in the lives of thousands. Both of these organizations have been so influential serving people in need with compassion and without discrimination. I send love to all of you at the Gala and my applause to The Actors Fund on its latest, well-deserved honor. Warmest regards, Tony Danza DECEMBER 1, 2014 7 LETTERS FROM BROADWAY! To The Salvation Army & The Actors Fund, Both of these organizations have been dear to me over the years. I served on the Board of Directors of The Actors Fund and remain a Life Member. I only left the board because I felt I couldn’t give enough quality time to their wonderful work. As for The Salva- tion Army, my interest and admiration began with the experience of my brother in 1967. During the terrible race riots in Detroit, my brother was in the National Guard and saw the action firsthand. There were a few trucks handing out coffee and doughnuts, but only for a price. The soldiers had been without food for almost twenty-four hours. These “mercy” groups were lucky to get out with their trucks intact… the soldiers were angry. Only The Salvation Army was there giving comfort, hot coffee, and food, free of charge. And they gave to all, whether they were soldiers trying to keep the peace, police, firemen, or any civilians begging for help to save their homes. If people were in trouble,The Army was there for them. My brother is not a particularly religious man, but on that terrible night, he saw what real Christian good- ness could accomplish. It changed him for the better. And it cer- tainly reinforced my commitment to my fellow men and women. I feel privileged to be counted among the friends of The Salvation Army and urge others to join in their wonderful work.
