Imp2Act: I AM LOTUS FLYY!

ABOUT ME

I am an energy seeker who feeds off of passionate, motivated, positive and powerful people. Kind of like a mosquito! :-) I love to promote and support initiatives where lives can be changed and positively impacted. I love to hear and tell stories of people living out their dreams against any or all odds. To make it simple I love to "Support A Cause", if you believe in it so will I. I am on a quest to find powerful people working and/or willing to make an impact in the world. No matter how large or small making an impact is something we should all strive to do. When was the last time you made an impact? Marché Patrice

I AM LOTUS FLYY!

For weeks I had been anticipating Lotus Flyy, Inc's 1st Annual Breast Cancer Awareness Happy Hour and on Tuesday, October 25th the day had finally arrived. Although it was late October it felt more like April and as you know when you mix a beautiful sunshine, wonderful warm breezes, and a great cause you know you're in for a fabulous evening. This event was no exception.

Founder Larissa Walters greeted, embraced, and showed each and every person to walk through those doors of the Reserve Restaurant in Baltimore to support her inaugural event the kind reception that only a gracious and blessed host could. This Breast Cancer Awareness event was especially meaningful for Larissa because she is the daughter of Brenda Carol Walters who passed away on March 24th, 2010 after a nine year battle with breast cancer. And in an effort to honor her mother's memory and continue her legacy, her family started an Endowment at her Alma Mater Roberts Wesleyan College in Rochester NY.

This was indeed a well-planned and thought out event with the perfect ambiance, a great crowd of friends, family, and supporters, food and drink specials, wonderful raffle prizes (that were all donated), beautiful cupcakes, and a professional artist painting (painting was beautiful and auctioned off) throughout the evening. But with all of that being said the best part of the night was looking around the restaurant and seeing there wasn't an empty seat, not a space unfilled, not a smile missing and not an untouched heart. This was indeed a moment for Larissa Walters and her family to be proud of. A moment I am certain Brenda is proud of.

How do you make an impact? You make an impact when you give even when it hurts.
