Television Possibly?
August 25, 2008
I was contacted by Aurea McGarry who hosts her own TV talk show in the Atlanta area. She features people who are either founders of non-profit organizations or huge volunteers for one. It airs on the famous ION station (formerly PAX) which is in over 2 million households around Atlanta and north Georgia up to Chattanooga, TN. It’s called “Live Your Legacy with Aurea McGarry!” Check out her website at http://www.liveyourlegacy.biz.
After a wonderful conversation, Aurea stated that she is interested in having me on as a guest. She thought it may be some time between now and the first of the year. I’ll keep you posted. Aurea is also a cancer survivor. A pink scarf is on it’s way!

I visited with the Internal Revenue Service and found out that I should be hearing within the next 30 days whether or not I will be considered a 501(c)(3). I’ll keep you posted.
Remembering Anna Hohbein
August 24, 2008
On August 17, 2008 I lost a special friend, Anna Hohbein. She was 72 and was the second recipient of a pink wrap, which she received on May 5, 2007.
Anna was featured inThe Bismarck Tribune where she shared her story about battling inflammatory ductal carcinomna, a rare form of breast cancer. Anna was always upbeat and appreciated her life. “I know life could end tomorrow, so I appreciate today,” she said.
I’m glad I had the opportunity to meet you.
Anna, you will be missed.
Name Change
August 9, 2008
Due to some unforeseen circumstances, I’ve had to change the name of my organization . It’s been changed from Hands to Hearts Inc. to My Pink Scarf Inc. Other than a name change, everything else is the same.
Thank you for your continued support.
