Donation to Silver Towers Pool Project

On September 1, 2018, during the DD and State President visitations, our guest speaker (Alicia Gay) from Tim’s House, gave me $10 to play the State President’s corn hole fund raiser that will support the Silver Towers (Karen McCormick Putnam Pond) pool Project. I was very fortunate to have won the 50/50 raffle portion of the game, which was $105.00. It was not mine to keep, because it was money given to me from someone else, so I donated the $105.00 back to the pool project. This is clearly an example of how “paying it forward” works. Thank you so much Alicia Gay for being kind enough to support one of our many causes.

Fraternally yours, Kim.
