"Thanks to your article, I landed an interview on the Fox News morning drive show (92.5) with Jason Jones. One of his listeners heard the interview, came to our event, and is now my red co-chair. Thanks so much for your support. Without your article we would not have found our red co-chair and would still be scrambling to establish this alliance. I simply can't express how grateful we all are!" Braver Angels SWFL Alliance Co-Chair Alex Berg
