This is a great question to ask yourself. What is important to you? What do you value in life? My belief is that the more you give of yourself or of your resources to others, the better you feel. I have done many things over the years. I counseled at high school church camp for many years, I volunteer at Theatre Cedar Rapids and Brucemore. I am active in my church. One of my current passions is a primary school in Karatu, Tanzania in East Africa. I raise much needed money to help build more classrooms, support students or buy books for the future library.

J.C. Penney just launched a charity program on July 1st that encourages customers to donate to a new cause each month. How do they do that you might want to know? They invite customers to round up their purchase to the nearest whole dollar and donate that difference to the charity partner of the month. For July, that partner is United Service Organizations (USO) which helps America’s troops and their families.
So, let me ask you again….what do YOU support?
