Profile Information

Why I'm choosing to give:

What I'd most like to receive:

How did you hear about the 29-Day Giving Challenge?

About me:
I live 15 miles NW of Washington DC in Montgomery County, MD. Everywhere I go I meet wonderful people and hear stories about even more. I've lived here all my life and I still love it.
