What an amazing opportunity!
What an amazing opportunity! I do hope those who are called respond. Action is urgent, and this epidemic continues to be somewhat hidden from public eye. I am glad this is getting more attention these days, and that action plans are being implemented.
All who are called, please act. Desperate souls are crying out. We need to act before these cries are silenced.
As always, Scott, thank you for posting this opportunity!
Peace and Hope-
Michelle
