You already know me; well, at least as well as you know yourself. You already know me for I am human. You and I are one in the same. We have felt the wide array of human emotion and have seen the beauties (and tragedies) that are the circle of life. We have seen grief, […]
In order to reach our fundraising goal of $351,000, we decided to make a final push to raise that money before we leave on Jun 4th. In one of our leadership meetings, we began brainstorming ideas that would be radical enough to get us that last $80,000 in a very short amount of time. We […]
