7th Year of the CEO Sleepout in 2 nights



Dear friends

There is 2 more nights before I sleep out as a homeless lawyer.

I have been so blessed with friends and supporters who support me each year in this event which is to help the homeless.

I just received a $3000 donation from a family that wants to remain anonymous bringing my total raised to $30,000 this year. Thanks, you know who you are.

I raised $33,000 plus last year. Hopefully I can raise more this year and there is still time to donate.
