Thanks to everyone who donated their time and money to this very special night! We raised so far $850 for the grannies and still counting! It was a fabulous night of inspiration! I would recommend to anyone to put on your own fundraiser to help raiser funds for this good cause! If you need any suggestions or need some musical talent for your fundraiser just let me know!
