I try to do my part in community service where I can. Most of my contributions tie into Breast Cancer or Cancer organizations as its meaning is important to me since my mother battled breast cancer. I hope to participate more and donate more of my time in coming years as Tyler gets older and I have a more balanced routine.
Helping Hands Milk Bank
DONATED 178 ounces of breast milk!
Breast milk is filled with rich nutrients and antibodies that makes it a perfect formula for babies and crucial for premature babies. My milk was used to feed extremely premature babies that weigh less than 3lbs!
Extra bonus: for every ounce donated, Helping Hands donated $1 to Susan G Komen!
Milk Donation #2 in 2011
DONATED nearly 30 inches of HAIR!
I am blessed with hair that grows fast! I have been able to donate approximately 30 inches of hair in total through 2 different donations to Locks of Love within 3 years!
Last but not least…
Race for the Cure
RAISED nearly $20,000 since 2008!
For the last 4 years I have been the founder and Captain of team Jogging for Jugs - the BEST co-ed race team in Atlanta! I hope to continue to grow the team and expand to other cities.
