Charity

      
                 

It's great to be able to choose to support a very broad range of charities. But it's often not easy to choose! I certainly can't tell you -- and shouldn't tell you -- which charities to support. All I can do is give you more information about a broad range of charities that I support and hope that you will at least support a charity not necessarily one of the charities that I choose. Below are some of the charities that I support. I believe that giving back is a main part of building a successful business but more importantly a successful self. I hope you take the time to go through some of the links below and always remember to make a difference in your community.

In 2010, LifeNet4Families | Cooperative Feeding Program will celebrate 25 years of service to the hungry and homeless of Broward County. From the humble beginnings of distributing a few peanut butter and jelly sandwiches to the homeless, to today's provision of 1.2 million meals a year, the agency's dramatic development has reflected both the growing numbers and the growing needs of the poor in our community.

Caring House Project Foundation

www.frank-mckinney.com/caring_project.aspx

In 1998, Real Estate investor and 5-time international bestselling author Frank McKinney, with his wife Nilsa founded the Caring House Project Foundation. The foundation's primary objective is to provide housing, food, water, medical support and opportunity for the desperately homeless around the world. Caring House Project Foundation has a long association with Haiti, having built orphanages and self-sustaining villages for many years. Unfortunately, many of these were destroyed during the earthquake. Mr. McKinney marshaled a volunteer search and rescue team immediately after the disaster. While they initially planned to check on the Foundation's buildings and occupants, his team wound up taking on search and rescue wherever needed. Caring House Project Foundation will continue their work in Haiti for years to come.
