I am positive I've left some off! Feel free to email them to me and I will add them in. If you know me outside of Macaroni Kid, you'll know that my volunteer life revolves around the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention and animal rescue/fostering. Since 2010, we have fostered over 150 dogs between NY and NC. Since 2013, when we lost a loved one to suicide, it has become my passion to save one family from the tragedy we have suffered. I hope you will join me in helping create stronger communities in Onslow and Carteret Counties! xoxo, Amy
