Charity starts at home
June 27, 2008 by Robert Rhodes.
Well, I always believe that you should put your money where your mouth is, so that is just what I have done! My friend, John Newman, referred me over to Ali McDougal, a young lady with a campus mission at the University of Houston and Texas Southern University. With this, I get to affect two items I love - U. of H. and God’s mission on earth.
Her website is available at http://www.alimcdougall.com/. Of course, don’t stop there. You can donate as well by going to: https://admin.everynation.org/giving/?P=010224.
I know this is not related so much to business, but the personal side of business is the reason why we do it.
