Junior Board of Rock Island

Most of you know that I am involved in Junior Board of Rock Island. This going on my 5th year with the organization. We have an annual Mardi Gras Gala fundraiser each year to raise money to aid different children organizations in the Quad Cities. Now that the New Year has begun we all swing into Mardi Gras mode as our evening is on Feb. 21st this year. Today was our attendants social, a afternoon of getting to know the young women who will be honored, pages and the crownbearers. I LOVE this organization. I have met some amazing women and feel very strong about our NEST Program that aids low income pregnant mothers to get proper prenatal care, this program is the reason why I do what I do within the organization.

I am hoping if you are reading my blog that this year you choose to join Ron and I on Feb. 21st at our gala. Great food, music and fun I will promise you. To order tickets you can go to www.jbri.org and purchase them. If you can't join us consider please making a donation to this wonderful organization.
