Mirabel Charity Luncheon raises $20,000 !

July 5th, 2010

Shane with Jane Rowe (Mirabel) and Ian Darling (Director of 'Polly and Me') On June 17th we were thrilled to raise over $20,000 at the 2010 Mirabel Charity Luncheon. The luncheon also included a preview screening of ‘Polly and Me’, a dramatic short film by award-winning writer and director Ian Darling. The film tells the story of one little girl who has fallen between the cracks and reminds us that just because we don’t see her, it doesn’t mean she isn’t there. The Mirabel Foundation supports children orphaned or abandoned due to parental illicit drug use. With me in this photo are Jane Rowe (Mirabel) and Ian Darling (Director of ‘Polly and Me’).
