Giving Back & Moving Forward
I have been involved in charitable work for most of my adult life. Most recently serving as the President of Arizona Helping Hands, a charity which grew under my leadership to become the largest provider of basic needs to Arizona’s children in foster care.
My experiences have led me to meet individuals and organizations that truly make a difference in our world. I love to share stories and have chosen this blog to share information and hopefully inspire others about the importance of Giving Back.
At the end of the day, it is the most important way we can keep Moving Forward!
