Mary Ann's blog!

A new year seems to welcome the opportunity to make the changes in our lives that we believe will make us happier, healthier, wealthier, stronger, or whatever it is we would like more of.

Finding the courage to face those changes, take the risk, make that leap, well, very often that is our biggest obstacle.

Ah, if it were only as easy as heading to the nearest coffeehouse to ask for a 'cup of courage!'

YOU are the only one who can find your courage, or as Merriam-Webster defines it, "the ability to do something that you know is difficult or dangerous."

We pledge our continued courage to provide the Get In Touch Girls' Program & Daisy Wheels FOR FREE to the schools that continue to sign up each day. The girls that receive this educational lifesaving information give us all the courage we need to continue our mission.

Our cup runneth over with courage!

Hope Lives!
