As 2008 draws to a close, our family foundation, The Light the Future Foundation, has made its annual giving to organizations that help people rise above their challenges to achieve their goals and dreams.  A portion of every dollar earned from our commission is donated to The Light the Future Foundation.

This year was certainly an interesting and challenging year for many with financial institutions and markets crashing around us, but we are still blessed to have our loved ones and our health. We founded our foundation on the belief that we are in a time when it is vitally important for businesses and individuals to reach out and support those in need. This year, as we may have our own struggles, it is just as important as ever.

For 2008 giving, The Light the Future Foundation continued its giving toward programs that help improve the lives of people, especially children and young adults. Again, with one local, Atlanta organization, The Bridge, and one international organization, Right to Play.
