It is with great pleasure that Abraham House is proud to announce the launch of our new website thanks to Jonathan Smith of Precision Computer Works located in Albany, New York. Jonathan is the President and owner of Precision Computer Works, and his father, Edward Smith, was a guest at the Abraham House earlier this year. Here is what Jonathan had to say about the new site:

      " As you know, my father spent his final days at the Abraham House. It was very difficult for us as family to watch him fight his cancer, not to mention the extreme physical and emotional pain he surely felt. As his illness worsened, it became clear that he would need full time care. After a brief time in the hospital, I was told he would be moved to the Abraham House, and having never heard of it I wasn't sure what to expect. I came to visit him after he arrived there, and I was extremely happy and relieved to see what a wonderful place the Abraham House is! It provided him with a warm, homey environment as well as the utmost care provided by a dedicated and compassionate team of employees and volunteers. Despite the reality of the situation, all of his friends and family were glad to see him staying in such caring surroundings. 

      Having said that, I know my father felt the same way about the Abraham House. Even though he was fighting for his life, he was grateful everyday that he had such a comfortable place to stay, and expressed his gratitude to all those who helped him. I would love nothing more than to see the Abraham House continue to help those during their most challenging times, and I wanted to contribute to the cause in any way that I could. Therefore, I decided contribute my talents and resources by providing the Abraham House with this new website. This new site will allow them to easily update news, information, and photos, as well as provide the community with new ways to donate time and funds.  After seeing the care that was provided to my father by the Abraham House, I feel it's the absolute least I can do."
