NannyCast 41: The Fairy God Nanny Foundation and Fund

On April 13th, 2020, we invited Nanny Tass to come on NannyCast and explain her nanny charity fund, The Fairy God Nanny Foundation. We did a one of a kind live taping in Zoom where people could join and unmute themselves if they had questions they wanted answered. And we had attendees (though none had questions)! Make sure you follow NannyCast’s Facebook page to get invitations to all future community contribution events.
