Giving Back
For those of us who are richly blessed, I believe we are to be a blessing to others. So, I ask my clients to match 10% of my fee and give that away to improve lives in their community. My clients can select their charity, giving both money and in-kind...some even give more than 10%! Giving is what it's all about, it's not about us - someone helped each one of us get where we are, so let's help others!
Some of the organizations to which clients contributed their 10%* match.
- Breast Cancer Research
- Domestic Abuse Centers & Programs
- Sexual Abuse Centers & Programs
- Protective Youth Services
- Transitional housing, food & life skills for men & women in transition
