Join What's Your Story, wysusa.com, for “linder” (lunch + dinner) and storytelling to raise money for Because She Is, becausesheis.org, at Crossroads in Garwood on Saturday, 3/16 from 4 pm to 6:30 pm. “What’s Your Story?” is a storytelling initiative that resulted from a call to action from founder, Robyn Shumer. In her TEDx talk, Robyn reflected on her own personal experiences and recognized a simple truth: We can find truth and understanding through sharing our unique experiences and stories. Unfortunately, many of these stories go untold. “What’s Your Story?”is a storytelling initiative that challenges us to open up to others and generate lasting, meaningful, personal and social change. Our mission is to provide safe spaces for people to tell the stories that shape their lives. Proceeds from every event will go to non-profit organizations.
