Good Deeds....One Bite at a Time!

Why is Zombie Leader involved with spreading Good Deeds One Bite at a Time?   My grandmother, Anne, passed away from non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma and my mentor’s son, Ryan, died of leukemia.  Grammy Z was a kind soul who loved her family dearly.  Ryan had been in remission and passed at the age of 19.  They are both missed dearly.  These personal experiences have motivated me to donate my time and monies to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society CT Chapter as well as other local and national charities.  Over the past 27 years, over $236,000 has been raised for LLS alone through events, donations, and auctions I have been involved with.   (Over $132,000 of that total was raised since establishing Zombie Leader in late 2013.)
