Founder’s Message
Carmand Normand
Giving fulfills a need for balance. A person’s primary responsibility is to take care of themselves and their family. Once they’ve achieved this, they feel a need to share what they have.
Furthermore, giving is a privilege and I want to use this privilege as a demonstration of solidarity. Mother Teresa said that you have to give until it hurts. I say you have to give until it feels good.
Getting support
We’re open to supporting a variety of projects and we’re always on the lookout for new initiatives to sustain our mission.
