On Wednesday April 27th, "As The World Turns" star Colleen Zenk joined us for another great night sponsored by our friends Roger and Damon over at We Love Soaps .
From her days as bad girl Barbara to her struggle with oral cancer to a triumphant return to the stage in an upcoming cabaret show (details coming soon!), we got to spend a very special evening with one of the legends of the world of daytime drama.
The night benefited the New Jersey based group, NJ Buddies, an HIV/AIDS support organization.
Mr. New Jersey Leather Robert Vitale spoke passionately about the need for the organizaiton to keep the vitally important nutritional supplement Ensure on hand - and how it's incredibly expensive.
And then, Zenk stunned the entire room when she revealed that she knew very well what Ensure was, as she had been on it during her illness. And that it had saved her life.
The night raised $1000 which did indeed go to buy these very supplies. If you're able to help NJ Buddies buy more Ensure (and other nutritional supplements) don't be shy about clicking here and going to the Buddies site and making a donation.
A testament to the strength and will of one person who has been to hell and back Ms. Zenk inspired us all that night to keep on going no matter what... and with a beautiful smile to boot!
The leather and soap worlds met when Robert presented Colleen with a "leather community starter kit" which included lots of awesome items including a medal that read: "Ms. Leather Soap".
