#heartsinSF
In 2015 Laura was one of 9 San Francisco "heartists" chosen to adorn a large San Francisco General Hospital Foundation heart sculpture. In order to turn the fiberglass heart into a reflective chrome mirror, Laura successfully raised the funds needed with an Indiegogo Campaign! After the heart was made it received a generous sponsorship from McKesson, helping raise $50,000 for the foundation. It then spent a week on display in Union Square, then a private buyer purchased the heart, adding $25,000 more to the total. In it’s entirety the chrome heart earned $75,000 for the foundation.
