The forum at Tucson

If you enjoyed tasting chili with your children at the 24th annual Tucson Firefighter Chili Cook-Off then we're certain your kids LOVED meeting Thing 1, Thing Two (and Things 3,4 and 5 for that matter) at The Forum at Tucson's booth located inside the Kids Zone! During this Superhero Sponsor Spotlight The Greater Purpose Project goes one on one with Hilary Lace, the Executive Director at The Forum (our Kid Zone Sponsor). Tune in to find out what is happening inside the 5 - Star Senior Living Community, and what the future may bring for its residents.  Plus our favorite invisible jet pilot (hint-hint- Wonder Woman) even makes a cameo!
