WIBL GUEST SPEAKER

We love to make new friends and share our work with others! Because we get numerous requests, we had to evaluate the time we were away from work and the escalating travel expenses. Though we do allow for some flexibility, we have suggested donation guidelines to help us maintain both a sustainable business model and allow for the importance of hospitality and sharing of good news.
