In 2007, along with the assistance of her partners, nurses, and community volunteers, she began the first annual Made for Shade fundraiser and foundation. During this initial year, they raised over $15,000 to provide shade on public school playgrounds. Every year, on the last Thursday in June, Made for Shade has a gourmet food and wine tasting event. This event serves as the main fundraiser for the foundation. They have raised nearly $50,000 in three years. Their goal is to provide shade to all of the area school playgrounds, coupling this with sun precautions and education to decrease skin cancer. She believes this goal will markedly decrease skin cancer in the Black Hills of South Dakota. |
