This is Diane Perez, my golfing buddy, team partner and friend. She is a great inspiration to all that know her. Upbeat, giving and determined to make a difference.
Today, Diane and her family gave a memorial tea for the American Cancer Society, in honor of her sister, Sandie Romero, who passed away from cancer earlier this year.
In a world full of calamity and strife it is so easy to feel powerless to help. But Diane reminds me that every effort makes a difference, we can make what we do count and we can change the world.
The American Cancer Society is a great charity. Imagine
what they could do if every American donated 10 bucks!
What I loved about this event that it was held as a backyard tea with 30 of their close friends and family.
Diane and her kids and family made the tea with delicious scones, sandwiches and cookies.
All afternoon we were waited on by these girls wearing their homemade aprons with the words CURE stictched on them. I have been to many charity events in Beverly Hills over the years, but none left me feeling so good as this home grown backyard tea. I felt so proud of my friend with the big heart who shows us all what you can accomplish with a small gathering. The tea raised $2700.00!!!!!!!!!!
If you can, give to a very worthy cause, The American Cancer Society.
