So The World May Hear

You know Toto, right?

Rachael and Toto, my favorite Starkey Peeps!

You know, the one that dresses up as Santa for our Christmas parties?

Ali will never be afraid of Santa when you have Toto to start you out!

And giant teddy bears for birthday parties?

Yeah, well, he's at it again, doing good for others.

Toto works for a company called Starkey Labs that provides the best hearing aids on the market, from your grandma (most certainly MY grandma...Long story, but we can thank Toto for that too...) to some of the most famous celebrities out there.  (You wouldn't believe how many people that you know of that actually wear hearing aids!)  In addition to stellar hearing aids, Starkey Labs also raises money to support missions to outfit poor areas of the world with hearing aids for those that need them..."So The World May Hear!!!"  Here's the thing, I realize that I'm not doing the Starkey Hearing Foundation any justice in my diatribe on this blog, but if you want to read more about it, you can right here.

Here's where I fit into this mix.  Together with Toto and a few other friends, I am co-hosting a fundraiser for the Starkey Hearing Foundation and would be most humbled if you would support!

For those of my local friends that reside in Minnesota, we are having a gathering in Rosemount on Saturday, November 13th at Celt's Pub (ahem, okay, it's a Beer Bust...As much beer as you can drink from 8-11pm, many thanks to  Celt's)!  Entertainment by Aaron Ollswang and his sweet, sweet lungs and guitar.  Event ticket is $10.

Now, this part is for both my friends in Minnesota and across the nation alike.  We are having a raffle for some stuff that's the business.  For real.  You can ALL buy a raffle ticket and enter, and you don't have to be present to win!  Here are what you could stand to win:

• Adrian Peterson autographed jersey

And perhaps the best prize that EVERYONE gets to win is the fact that you're donating to an awesome charity that helps those in need across the globe.

At the risk of sounding like Sally Struthers, if you can find the kindness in your heart, and the coinage in your wallet, then I would be most grateful for your support!  Please message me on Facebook, or email me at danielledambro@msn.com.
