Shanti Training - Saturday March 20th -
I am a huge fan of the work that Shanti does. Many many years ago I used their services and was so glad that there was something as unique as Shanti available. They provide one on one emotional support to folks and are still going strong! My hope is that you don't need their services but am so pleased that they are available. If you are looking for a volunteer opportunity -this is a rewarding one.
I was at an elder planning meeting the other day and ran into an long time friend and one of the original founders of Shanti. I thought...out of her tremendous loss she helped create an organization that has helped so many people in their time of emotional need and also provide an opportunity for others to gain through giving of themselves. A long overdue THANKS Karen.
