I volunteer my time coaching youth sports. There is something special about watching kids develop their potential, build relationships with their peers and most of all have fun. The time commitment is far outweighed by the confidence and self esteem they develop as well as lasting memories.

As a Majority Member of the International Order of the Rainbow for Girls, I am now giving back to the Masonic Youth Group, by being Pledge Mom for a local Assembly. I teach young girls, ages 8-10 about the basic lessons of Rainbow - some of which are Love, Hope & Charity. They learn about Kindness and to be friends with each other.
I am participating because I want to make this work a better place, in anyway that I can.
