We believe in collective efforts, in bringing people together, wonderful people together for a mission, for an objective."   "I had an inner voice that told me constantly and every day it was stronger and stronger... You have to go back and you have to help him and you have to give back and you have to work for the Venezuelan people." - On her decision to return to Venezuela   Have you listened to last week's conversation with Scott Santarella of the Alpha-1 Foundation?
