WHAT IS A SOUL SHAKER?
Inspired by Pat Nixon’s late father Hueguester “Soul Shaker” James, a Soul Shaker is a FORCE, with a passion to serve. Our hope is to bring together all the Soul Shakers of our community to host an impactful event to serve our seniors. We are sure this star-studded night will be filled with memories, fellowship, and friends, and serve as an opportunity to collaborate with philanthropic minds on how we can better serve our senior population.
