I love a challenge especially when it is for a beautiful cause and organization like the Julie Valentine Center.  Many of you know that the JVC holds a special place in my heart and I will always be grateful for all the love, support, and services they have so generously shared with me. 

Over the years, family, friends - and many people I never had the pleasure of meeting - have contibuted to help me raise dollars and give back to this incredible community serving its own.  I find pure JOY knowing each year that the JVC hosts its annual fundraiser - a platform to help others and to bring awareness to JVC's mission. 

Because I am so passionate about the work done at JVC and those it helps regain their voice, their confidence and so much more, I will continue to advocate for myself and on their behalf.  #speakup

In the past two years, with your help, I have raised over $10,000.  I thank you all!  Simply stated, when Tracey Herlong believes in something, she finds a way.  I hope you will find it in your hearts to help me find a way to help the JVC reach its overall goal of $300,000.  It's an ambitious goal with only 13 days until the luncheon, but is so very small compared to the ambition and drive the JVC helps reinstill in all those who takes those hard, first steps to #speakup. 

With gratitude, Tracey
