Here are Lisa’s comments from the interview:

I was happy to come down and interview. What a warm welcome 10 Connects gave me. Couple other points I didn’t get a chance to make: MacDill AFB Enlisted Spouse’s Club raised money for our cause to help those on MacDill in need. Please contact us to find out how to place a doll into the loving arms of a child in need right here in Tampa. Also, ANYONE can donate. Every $1 helps. In recent days, groups have come forward to donate instead of buying each other Christmas gifts (RNs from Orlando and Kansas City). We thank each of you for your support. Let’s Help our Little Heroes left behind. Let’s support our troops who are protecting us by us providing comfort to their children. Think about these children right now as we all plan to celebrate the holidays with loved ones. Thanks for your interest!
