Our monthly “Community Cuppa” was a wonderful time for connection, conversation and support. Thank you Kay, Kitt, Peggy, Chris, JoAnn, Kathy and Helen. We LOVED Celebrating Chris’ new kidney anniversary, JoAnn returning to joy, Kitt becoming a regular attendee, Kay loving family, Peggy sharing gems about her plants, meeting newcomers Kathy and Helen, and Helen T sharing she’s going to become a grandparent. Yes! Liliana and Carter are expecting a baby in September.
This event is a fundraiser for our “Soma Charity Partner”. All donations collected go towards St. Jude. We raised $25 for our 2025 fundraiser and we are 1% there with a total of $25! Yes! another new beginning on our quest to raise $5000 by February 2026.
Our next “Monthly Cuppa” is Monday, May 5th (during our Art of Communication retreat)
