Speaking
"Fundraising fits like a glove for Abbie. Raising money is a genuine vocation for her. It’s a calling the way some people are called to ministry or medicine. She’s very affirming of everyone in the process, so she makes you feel good about what you’re doing." Reverend Dr. Peter B. Ives, Retired Pastor First Churches, Northampton, Mass.
