President/CEO/Founder, Caring For Others, Inc.
In 2001, with $25 and a calling from above, I began a journey of hope called Caring For Others. Little did I know what was in store. The owner of a warehouse agreed to rent a portion of his building for three months for $1. The space had no heat, no toilet, no running water.
We have grown swiftly and have since purchased the building, expanded globally, and increased our giving by more than a hundredfold! Today the journey is far from over. Caring For Others continues to offer hope to the least of these and, most importantly, give a voice to the faces of poverty. This includes those who have been marginalized and remain invisible to society.
We cannot operate in a vacuum. Volunteers, donors, and partners are the key to our success. It doesn’t matter where you come from or how you look, poverty is not a respecter of persons. But toogether we can certainly shift the tides and restore dignity to families in need.
During 2020, a year when everyone struggled, we asked more of ourselves as an organization and as individuals, and we succeeded in bringing dignity and hope to those we reached.
With the support of our board members in the United States and abroad, Caring For Others’ global impact continues to expand.
