Volunteering gives me an opportunity to make others smile, and allows me to partner with my wife and company to give back to the community. Giving back provides hope that others see the benefit and value and do the same when they’re willing and able to, no matter how small the opportunity or donation.

.In the world today, it seems too easy to be cruel and too hard to be kind, so I just like to help out wherever I can. I would like to be the good in someone’s life.

I enjoy working with JCCJ because it allows my family and me a platform to extend a helping hand.
