I have personally worked with the ALD for many years and they are absolutely AMAZING!! They are such a hard working group of women whose passion for children shows in everything they do. They provide hundreds of hours to ensure that underserved children are given every opportunity to flourish.
Every month they create beautiful taggies and blankets for our patients. The huge smiles on our kid's faces when they receive one is priceless!! They support every organization they serve by attending events and advocating for them. They work beautifully together and are such a blessing to work with.
These ladies do so much for our community and if you have not had a chance to get to know them, you should!!
