If funding your presentation is an obstacle, you may choose to have me invite a few vendors to join us and have them sponsor a table for a fee of $50 to help offset the speaking fee. The vendors will need a table for their materials and will be available before, after, and at break for your audience to visit and gather much needed information about community resources and support like home health care, adult day care, housing, hospice, memory care, etc.
