My wish is to do something to make a difference in my life and in my community. I wanted to speak up and speak out for the women and children who are affected by domestic violence. Creating awareness and help those silent victims to have a stable and nurturing environment in their homes. Thursday, February 26th 2015 Thank you to Our Venue Host- Crowne Plaza 10 Year celebration! A year of reflection, of gratitude and giving back!
