Well…if you want to get involved and be of service….a great and not necesarily easy thing to do ….but you don’t have time to figure out your options….read the Gaye Watkins Report…Gaye covers the gala end of some organizations that when they are not doing galas..are genuinely helping out the folks that need the most help….which we are going to go out on a limb here and say is the most important work that can be done. Read Gayes report and volunteer….or maybe donate …or perhaps in these times bartend at one of these events…either way…the column is an easy and yeah, a fun way to stay in tune with ways that you can help out… if you’d like.
