A benefit for Harvesters
"Because no child should grow hungry"
"What can be said but WOW.... what a day!"
Like all years before, Pagan Pride Day was a benefit for a local organization.
For 2001 we worked with Harvesters,
sharing what the Gods have
given to us. Over 200 people came to see speakers and donated over 300 pounds of
food and some cash.
