🎉 50 FOR MY 50! 🎉

This year, I celebrated a milestone my 50th Birthday. As I reflected on all that God has allowed me to accomplish, I realized there is no greater gift than the opportunity to continue serving others.

Instead of asking for birthday gifts, I’m asking 50 amazing people to make a tax-deductible donation of $50 to Dare To Be Different Westchester.

If God has blessed you to give more, I invite you to consider a gift of $100, $150, $250, or any amount that is placed on your heart.

❤️ Your donation helps us continue:

* Providing food and fresh produce through the Greenburgh Farmers Market
* Supporting families through our Love & Help Center
* Assisting seniors, youth, and families with essential resources
* Offering year round outreach, education, and community programs

Every dollar you give is an investment in hope, dignity, and opportunity for someone in our community.

As Founder and President of Dare To Be Different Westchester, I have always believed that when we come together, we can accomplish extraordinary things. Today, I’m asking you to stand with me and help us continue this important work.
