This session of the radio show shares my conversation with Amber Baur, Franklin Food Pantry regular volunteer and recent addition to the Board of Directors along with Laura Du, Food Pantry Client Services Manager.

Sarah Daly and Kristen Boyd, along with Maria Raber, are chairs of this year's 2023 Heroes In Transition gala. The 14th gala's theme is Legacy of Love and will be held on Friday, September 22nd at the Coonamessett Inn in Falmouth. Heroes in Transition started in 2009, when Ken and Cyndy Jones lost their only son Captain Eric Jones in an Afghanistan helicopter crash. Since then, they continue to keep Eric's legacy of service alive to active military members and veterans and their families through various programs that help develop a sense of community and resiliency for this population. The programs that they offer fill the gap between what government and other agency programs don't provide. They offer a veterans' equine warrior program, families in transition, couple retreats, etc. Tickets for the gala are available on their website. This year's keynote speaker is Tim Whalen. John Terrio is the auctioneer. The live auction offers a Provincetown weekend, a weekend at the White Elephant on Nantucket, lobster boat cruise, Bruins opening night tickets, dining across Cape Cod, etc. The silent auction is open during cocktail hour and opens up for digital bids on September 15th. 100 raffle tickets will be sold for $100 each for a trip for two to Nashville at the Vanderbilt Hotel. It includes airfare, a tour of the Country Music Hall of Fame, and more.

SEASON 03: WICKED GOOD ENTREPRENEURS | EPISODE 07 The Story of Boston Moms with Meghan Block and Shannon Gibson What better way to wrap out our Wicked Good Entrepreneur series than by hearing the backstory of Boston Moms from its owner, Meghan Block? On today's episode we are chatting, just the two of us, about the beginnings of Boston Moms, how the brand has grown, and what the future looks like. This is a fun conversation between two friends who came together because of the brand they are both so passionate about. Thanks for listening to The Story of Boston Moms! About Our Hosts  SHANNON GIBSON started following Boston Moms on social media before she even lived in the Boston area! She credits her passion for the brand to the way it served her personally before she ever contributed to it. Shannon started as a writer for our team, and currently serves as our Director of Creative Operations. She is also a Licensed Social Worker with a big heart for mental health and wellness. Though Shannon moved to Boston to support her husband's career, Boston Moms was the unexpected gift and opportunity she had no idea was waiting for her. Shannon is mom to Elizabeth (2016) and Anderson (2018). She has been married to her husband, Benjamin, since 2012. Benjamin is a filmmaker and owner of Boston production company Magnus Films. In her free time, Shannon enjoys going to the beach, browsing antique stores, hiking with her family, traveling, reading, and watching movies with her husband. MEGHAN BLOCK was born and raised in Plymouth, attended college in Boston, and followed her husband around the country while he served as a Submarine Officer in the United States Navy for a period of time. When they decided to put down roots in 2016, the couple knew they needed to move *home* to Boston. Six years later, it's still the best decision they've ever made. Meghan currently lives on the South Shore with her husband, Rob and their 3 children, born in 2013, 2015 and 2019. She works full-time from home, and spends her days balancing motherhood and her career. Meghan is truly passionate about connecting Boston-area moms to each other, to important and relevant resources, and to local businesses. In her free time, you can find her trying a new recipe, working on their fixer upper, planning a party, or supporting her favorite local businesses.
