Upcoming Events - join me!

Of course all of these dinners and events are held during busy times for all of us. If you are unable to attend any, I encourage you to chose one to donate to. They are all unique and have different yet overarching missions of equality for all people and making today safe for youth. I'm honored to be invited and working with so many of these incredible organizations.
