Benefit #1

Plans are in the works for the first of hopefully several benefit events for my medical expenses. My best friend Carissa- her sister-in-law is a wedding/ event planner & she has offered to put this evening together for me! She has created a blog for the event:

We are having a dinner, silent auction, cabaret performance from local professional theatre folks, and dancing w/ a DJ. Should be a fun night!

We are also going to talk about organ donation. We will present some facts & answers some FAQ's, and provide info & resources to get folks registered to be an organ donor.

Right now we are working on drumming up donations for the silent auction. So far we have some really great items!
Stay tuned for more details.

Hey lady!! Well, so far, the kind of things we've drummed up are: gift certificates from a couple local florists, gift cert from Edgewood Bakery, pair of tickets to Avenue Q from FCCJ Artist Series, oil changes & detailings from Keith Pierson Toyota, dinner @ Santioni's, dinner at Longhorn. Still working on some other options as well. Any donation is much appreciated! And we still need to get together. Tell Nichole and pick a day*
