SoHo Says…I know 2 young philanthropists!

Last weekend two dear friends of mine, Samantha and Maggie set up a lemonade stand at their grandparents’ yard sale.  Samantha and Maggie did the most selfless act – they donated monies raised by selling lemonade and water at their stand to the SPCA of Luzerne County.  What is even more amazing is that Samantha and Maggie did all of this on their own – at the ages of nearly 10 and 5 years old!  I applaud Samantha and Maggie for their efforts to help the homeless animals at the shelter.  The SPCA of Luzerne County has such a special place in my heart…this is where my sister Coco Chanel was adopted from and for their care of her during the time she was there, I will be forever grateful to them!

I am so thrilled that Samantha and Maggie have shown such compassion for the homeless animals in the shelter.  They are role models for us all and have shown that helping out the homeless animals can be fun and rewarding at the same time.

Thank YOU, Samantha and Maggie!!

SoHo Says…May went by with a blink of an eye!

May started with many celebrations for my momma’s 40th birthday.  Then on May 7th, my sister – Coco Chanel’s celebrated her 7th birthday, my adoption/birthday was on the 25th and my Aunt Denise’s birthday was on the 26th.
