There are many more that I am not remembering, but I was so touched by the way you all supported each other and said THANK YOU- it really made me proud!!! :) Let's keep the random acts of kindness going - I'd like to challenge you to try to do one thing per week to brighten someone else's day!
In addition, many of your teams reported in with some requests and changes you would like to see. Please let me know when I can stop by your team times to have a discussion about your ideas! (STARBUCKS on tap, anyone?) :)
Please Help Support St. Baldricks and Sylvia G!
