Sarasota Manatee Home Town Heroes

Sandy Slaminko has been instrumental in bringing the national organization, Baby Basics, Inc. to our local area. Baby Basics provides diapers to the “working poor”. Sandy has been married for over 40 years, has four children, and seven grandchildren. Two of Sandy’s children were originally her foster children. Clearly, taking responsibility for her community has been a way of life for Sandy for a very long time. She shares about some of the people and experiences that have helped to make her who she is.
