Share your stories ideas via email to hstorm@bestversionmedia.com. If the COVID pandemic has taught us anything, it’s the importance of community and taking care of each other. If we value altruism over selfishness, we make better choices for our neighbors and community, and everybody wins. Lickstein Plastic Surgery has always placed tremendous value on our community, not just by taking care of so many of our neighbors, but also by sponsoring the Young Professionals of Palm Beach North and being limitlessly philanthropic, especially in our county. We should all continue this local support, and the ripple effect will reach farther than we may ever realize, and that’s just great. —Craig & Amy F., Alton HERE’S WHAT OUR READERS ARE SAYING Wayne Canner Publisher wcanner@bestversionmedia.com Heather Storm Content Coordinator hstorm@bestversionmedia.com Thank You
