I was brought up to give back and believe that each human being has an obligation to help others. Our secret ingredient is a smile, making a genuine connection with people and humanity.
We can all do something. Different people like, and are good at different things and everyone can use their unique skills. Each person has their chance to shine.
Friendships in the member group are as important as raising money. The members support each other in times of need.
