This meal train/ donations will allow, Shannon to have healthy and accessible meals during their healing and recovery. Shannon Fortner has contributed as a community leader in the Sarasota community for over 13 years! They are the Founder and Executive Director of Fabulous Arts Foundation (previously known as Harvey Milk Festival), a volunteer-based arts and advocacy organization whose focus is to uplift the LGBTQ+ community.
