When there is a cause that resonates with me, I feel compelled to do something to help raise money.  As an artist, I am happy to share my talents and donate paintings.  http://www.PinkAid.org is one such organization.  There was a Pink Aid Long Island fashion show event, and I was delighted that this painting helped raise monies for this wonderful charity that gives grants to local charities that help people in their plight against illness.
