I couldn't find my original thread, so I started a new one....
Wanted to bump this since I have a bit of an update. Coach Franklin has a new Assistant. I had been working with his former Assistant on this dinner idea and seemed to be making some progress, but obviously lost touch once she left the program. She hadn't returned any of my emails or calls. So, several weeks ago I was informed that a new Assistant is in place.
I have had several emails and phone conversations with her. This dinner idea is on the agenda for tomorrow's staff meeting. She said if they do not get to this point on the agenda, then she will take an individual conversation with coach.
So, I have not lost hope. I was about to mail 107 letters to coach if I hadn't heard back from the new Assistant. I shit you not! But hopefully I have some good news by the end of the week.... Next week at the latest.
The other update is that if we have the dinner after all, then we may be able to fully sponsor a 4 Diamond child's wish. The dinner would fund their entire wish. I sit on the Philadelphia & Susquehanna Valley Board for Make A Wish, and Penn State Hershey Medical is within our jurisdiction. In fact, one of the top Oncologists sits on our board.
So the idea is not dead yet! And I hope to be sharing some positive news on this shortly!
