Marianne's Three Favorite Things: April 2021

Just as spring is revealing herself, we too are emerging from our self-exile and basking in the sunlight to heal ourselves and renew our love of life. In the spirit of healing, I’m partnering with my wonderful women friends, neighbors, colleagues, and clients to bring hope through a giving circle. I’m looking for 100 women who can donate $100 to collectively gather and donate $10,000 to the charity of our choosing four times per year. I’d love for you to embark on this budding adventure with me. Please contact me with questions.
