It was such an honor to have been asked to be a part of this special event. I was able to speak with many families and get to know the kids. The Staaten was packed! There were many well-known members of the community present, including Congressman Michael Grimm.
Linda Angelone, Executive Director of Rainbow's Hope, interacted with all of the children, dressed head-to-toe in a Sleeping Beauty ensemble. You can clearly see the great amount of joy she receives from working with this organization.
Volunteers from a local high school worked hard to make the day extra-special. Once again I was able to see young adults who really do want to make a difference in their community.
I had a wonderful time at the Rainbow's Hope holiday party. As Linda Angelone told us, "This is a day you will never forget for the rest of your lives." I'm sure of that, too.
