Coni Meyers, joined by my co-host, Howard Fox, reflect on the whirlwind that was 2024—a year marked by essential prioritization, persistence, and dodging those ever-tempting "shiny objects."

In this episode, we celebrate:

• The remarkable achievements of the "Be Prepared, Be Ready" nonprofit
• The ingenuity behind our "Kits for Kids" initiative, and
• The exciting collaborations formed to enhance our efforts.

We give a should-out to extraordinary individuals and partners, from Michael Maldonado, to Deb Hernandez, to Courtney and Greg the Strejan, who played pivotal roles in these successes.

Join us as we share stories of resilience, collaboration, and forward-thinking plans for 2025. Hear how restructuring our infrastructure, forming new partnerships, and expanding our reach have laid a strong foundation for future growth and impact. We’ll also dive into the promising endeavors ahead, including the significant sponsorships lined up and the influential community figures we’ve engaged with.

So, stay tuned as we journey through the milestones of 2024, and together, let's look ahead to a year filled with potential and promise.
