A-OK Weekend 2010

About A-OK Weekend-

Our Sister’s at Women Transcending Boundaries hold a vision of a weekend where Compassion and Kindness are the only goal. However, along their journey in creating this extraordinary initiative, they have activated an entire city including seeing Syracuse as a City of Compassion!  We honor our Sisters who share our vision of a world that works for everyone and launch A-OK Weekend in California. Our Sisters at WISDOM in Detroit have also stepped up making this weekend a National event. Please join us!
