At the for our awards in NYC! What a wonderful ceremony so far!

This isn't an easy thing to say. We have been working tirelessly to get DHN off the ground for the last two years. As you know we are a volunteer organization with just two people working - after a long and hard effort to make it work, we realized that we just didn't have the right resources: money, people, time, etc. These reasons have led us to shut down DHN for the time being.

We truly appreciate your continued support and belief in our dream! We hope that one day things will work out and we will be able to make this a reality.

Thanks again for everything.

Sincerely,
Peyton and Melissa
