I enjoy being involved in my community and local non-profit organizations. Over the years, I have participated in a variety of great causes, including:
Big Brothers Big Sisters of Tampa Bay provides children facing adversity with strong and enduring, professionally supported one-to-one relationships to change their lives for the better. My Little Brother Dan graduated from the University of Florida and pursued a career in the U.S. Navy.
Muscular Dystrophy Association is dedicated to finding treatments and cures for muscular dystrophy, ALS and related neuromuscular diseases by funding worldwide research. The MDA also provides comprehensive health care and support services, advocacy and education.
United Negro College Fund, Tampa branch, works to provide college book scholarships to Hillsborough County high school seniors. The UNCF strives to ensure all Americans have equal access to a college education that prepares them for rich intellectual lives, competitive and fulfilling careers, engaged citizenship and service to our nation.
Terra Nova Club, Inc. is a St. Petersburg, Florida, organization that provides a clean and safe environment for those seeking recovery from addiction.
Ovacome is dedicated to saving lives by educating the community about the symptoms of ovarian cancer, which is often diagnosed in the later stages. They offer direct support to gynecologic cancer patients through meetings and presentations where survivors share their experiences with other patients and their families.
The Charcot-Marie-Tooth Association’s mission: to support the development of new drugs to treat CMT, to improve the quality of life for people with CMT, and, ultimately, to find a cure. Our vision: a world without CMT.
