Now this is what I like to see. A charity that goes to the root of things. No B.S., no one gets a huge paycheck, from it. Karen is a true heroine. She experienced the need, and now is helping others in their time of need. I think that’s wonderful. Sorta gives one a better view of people, and the world.

Karen Mertes is truly a great hero. I was honored to attend the ceremony of the generous gift of the Tampa Bay Lightning. She has overcome her brain injury caused by a drunk driver, and continues to help thousands of people here in Tampa. Congratulations to Karen!
