Last week I had a breakfast meeting doing business on behalf of Chestnut Housing Corporation. I am on the Board of Directors of this non-profit. Our purpose is to provide housing to folks who would otherwise be facing homelessness.
Last year we purchased a property and rehabilitated it into a wonderful home. The total project cost us about $80,000 and have raised about $60,000. Our goal is to raise the remaining funds to be completely debt free. My breakfast meeting was for the purpose of asking for a donation. I did not get a commitment, but had a great breakfast and made a new friend.
Pay it forward and give some time to a non-profit organization. Give back to your community by give some time, some money and just plain old commitment to a cause. Pay it forward.
