A couple of years ago, Tarona and Dina made a plan to do something special before they turned 40 and, so, the time has come. From April 25 through May 10, the duo will be on a road trip to volunteer their time and energies to various organizations and unsuspecting individuals across the country. Ambitious to do in two weeks, they know, but they're completely dedicated to doing something that they will surely remember for the rest of their lives.
Check back on Friday, April 25 when they officially set off on their journey...

I hope you have a fantastic trip!
Have a fabulous, fabulous trip! I cannot wait to read all of the details!
I volunteered for 15 years in the Education Department of the Museum of Modern Art.. I got involved through a very good friend who went on to become the department's director. The reason I got involved is I used to meet her for lunch at the Museum and on any given day I saw perhaps 5 people of color working there (excluding security personnel). I thought it would be a good idea to volunteer so people of color would have more of a presence at MoMA. This proved especially true when school and other groups would visit on the weekends.
Check your spare and make sure you have a jack (or AAA). Good luck.
