MaryMargaret at International DayOn Saturday, July 18, MaryMargaret was offered the opportunity to spread the word about Kids Are Heroes to the folks in Howard County, MD.  She was given a booth at International Day 2009. Held in Columbia this was a picture perfect day with great weather and lots of activities.  We have many new fans of our site now since we met so many great people.  She also was able to add to her Music for Life total which is quickly approaching $2000.00.  Thanks Howard County!!

MaryMargaret at the Valley Mall

MaryMargaret at the Valley Mall

MaryMargaret was at the Valley Mall this weekend as part of the Pillars of the Community Day.  This mall is in Hagerstown, MD which is about 30 miles from where we live.  Not  many had heard of Kids Are Heroes, so that was a good thing that we were able to spread the word.

MaryMargaret was also collecting donations for her Music for Life program, an ambitious effort to buy MP3 players to the kids at Children’s Hospital in Washington DC.  So far she has raised just over $1700.00!  She will take what she has before the end of the summer and purchase them for delivery.  If you would like to know more about this project, or would like to donate, please click here.
