Sheila, I so enjoyed this interview! Helping those here is absolutely imperative. Since moving from Washington
in 1985, raising a family, I see local needs as being vital to helping this town. So much is focused
on those with so much: able to give to the local “it” nonprofits that are so well funded, we must not ignore homelessness needs and agencies that are on the ground, literally, with not much backing. I must say, all our non profits are
so necessary to sustain our community. That said, some are more difficult to implement.
Thanks so much!
