5th Anniversary of Hurricane Katrina
As we reflect on the 5th anniversary of Hurricane Katrina and what has and hasn’t transpired during this time of rebuilding and healing, here’s my thought: BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE IN THE WORLD. Credit to Mahatma Ghandi.
Although in some respects it’s “never enough” to be reminded of all the work that needs to be done, there are plenty of stories at the local and national level about New Orleans and its’ environs, 5 years after the storm. My thought, above, for the day sums it up for me and has helped to foster our mission at Brandy and Val, LLC to “do good where good is needed.”
Val’s story as a “Hurricane Katrina Dog” will be told on this evening’s NBC5 News Chicago 6 p.m. broadcast and I’ll post the link tomorrow so everyone can hear his tale.
It is through our pet therapy duties and sales of our books: BRANDY AND VAL, BRANDY AND VAL’S FAVORITE THINGS and BRANDY AND VAL’S SPECIAL STORY and sales of our mini-Brandy and mini-Val toys that we hope to benefit the lives of children and animals.
