About Me
- IL Primo Snack Packer - Daniella
- Seventeen months ago, I took a break from the glamorous, edgy scene of bookkeeping (yes, I'm 107 - Botox people) and started a nonprofit to support deployed military with monthly care packages from home. I thought I was just going to pack a lot of boxes. Seriously -- that's what I thought. I was thinking way too small! This work has brought me so many gifts. I have made several friends for life, learned a lot about what generosity really is (from the brave men and women serving our country) and found a big piece of my passion and voice.
