Leaving a Legacy

Me and GG

I have been involved with ACTION – AIDS Care Teams In Our Neighborhood, for close to 4 years now, and for the last year I have sat on the board of this grass root organization with great pleasure. ACTION is all about enriching the lives and maximizing the self-sufficiency of men an women living with HIV/AIDS.

Today was our biggest fundraiser of the year, Ragin Cajun…a fabulous cocktail party with amazing food, music, people, honors, putting contest trip to Hawaii and more. To be honest I was nervous how the day will turn out and excited to be with my care partner. The result…our best Ragin Cajun EVER and fun was had by all!!!

I believe if you truly want to get outside yourself… donate your time. I mean this from the bottom of my heart and this comes from my own experience. I believe we  innately want to contribute to others in our lives, but sometimes we get caught up in everyday life…we may want to contribute, but we decide not to follow through because we lack 2 resource – time and money…is this true for you?

There are many organizations out there such as ACTION where you can give as much time as you humanly can, no more, no less… with no judgment. I invite you to look inside yourself and ask, can I donate a few hours a month? A week? A day?…find whatever works for you and step out of your comfort zone. The better question is… are you willing? If so what legacy will you leave behind?

Find one that fits for you and if you need help or resources please call me: 949.661.4422 I’d be happy to help.

Many thanks to my son Clayton for his love and creativity in constructing the putting course today and to Quattro community member Dee Duncan for all his support in helping at todays event…You ROCK Clay and Dee!
