Thankful Thursdays

I am playing a bit of catch up, after requiring a few days of some much needed rest following last week’s event.  I can confidently say that now I have truly allowed myself to sit down and be thankful for the results and success that was The Naked Gardiner Foundation’s “Naked & Fabulous” fundraising event, although on the night overwhelm did get the better of me by the end of the evening. I was very much that duck you hear of, whose wadding feet were frantically thrashing underwater!

I will do a little write up with the outcomes from the event shortly and believe me there are a lot of thanks that will be heading many people’s way!!! However, today, I personally want to express my thanks to our beautiful, beautiful, beautiful guests!

We had over 110 guests join us for the screening of Absolutely Fabulous! A mammoth turnout and one that I, and our Foundation, are truly humbled by.  Like the first day of school, I can honestly say that I was nervously anxious yet excited about the night. I knew that we would be surrounded by so many beautiful and dear long term friends, but what I didn’t really prepare myself for were the new supporters, followers and now friends that have taken us under their wings and let us enter their “cool-group” circle! For that we are truly thankful! BFF announcements coming your way, hahaha!

I am thoroughly excited by the enthusiasm and vigour that our beautiful guests shared with me on the night in support of the The Naked Gardiner Foundation’s vision and the work that I myself have personally undertaken thus far in the space of patient advocacy.

Personal connection is such an important part of awareness and together dear Nakeds, we can make small changes that have huge impacts on someone’s world.

Thank you to our amazing guests for sharing their own personal experiences and stories with me and for being the shining lights that help guide us on the path of hope and harmony that we genuinely wish to share with our community.

Your attendance and support was truly appreciated! And we can’t wait to build our friendship circle even wider with you!

What are you thankful for dear Naked? Don’t be shy, share below!
