Value to Sponsor
Other Value:I, Dawn Grabowski, am a dynamic Speaker that personalize every Speech. I believe in inclusion for all people no matter what an individual's abilities, or disabilities. I believe that diversity is vital in today's society. Because I have an Acting & Comedy Background, I know the importance of PR , Marketing, and can publicize on Social Media. Since I have a physical disability- Cerebral Palsy- I have a perspective that the average person doesn't have. I can bring awareness & education to anyone that is exposed to one of my Speeches and /or Presentations.
