Mary Jacanin
Since 2010 (when we started keeping track), Mary has attended 68 GTSF shoe distribution events! But, even before that, she was giving her time to our organization and helping make a difference. Mary has not only donated thousands of hours to GTSF programs and initiatives but, for the past several years, she has also spearheaded our recycling efforts at distribution events, which has resulted in her collecting over 500 POUNDS of recycling - including 128 pounds of plastic during just this past 2013/2014 school year!
THANK YOU Mary!

 Throughout the month of April, Massage Envy Spa donated $1 to GTSF for every sugar foot scrub treatment purchased at all 12 Massage Envy locations. Each location also collected donations through our Sneaker Print program, ultimately raising over $2700 for GTSF!
On April 24th, the Foundation Room at Mandalay Bay hosted a Good Karma event, benefiting GTSF! It was a great night complete with delicious drinks, good company, and fabulous views, all in support of GTSF. Thank you Foundation Room!
National Mom's Nite Out kicked summer off right poolside at the Silverton Hotel & Casino! Moms were treated to signature cocktails, tasty treats, pampering packages, prizes and more! Proceeds from the special opportunity prize drawing benefited GTSF! |
