Every sale Benefits myself and 2 worthy Charities: DREAM, here in NYC, (formerly known as Harlem RBI) and SHEPHERD'S TABLE, which is located right outside DC, in Silver Spring, Maryland. In the early 2000s I Volunteered at the TABLE, for about 3 years. It was a wonderful Experience which I never forgot. I donate to both as often as possible. Thanks for considering my listing.
