ST^2: Share Today, Shape Tomorrow

Our Goal: To affect everyone’s tomorrow by generously giving time, attention, and material goods today.

Being good is hard work! It doesn’t take much to create a habit of generosity, but sometimes one’s personal concerns loom so large in one’s imagination that it crowds out any positive thoughts about one’s fellow human beings.

I give thanks for the people in my life who inspire and encourage me to be better. They are among those whom I admire greatly. Two of them, in fact, are people who are the driving force of a new, local nonprofit organization, Share Today Shape Tomorrow, that I had been asked to be a part. (Please see the About page of ST^2 for specifics.) I am very, very happy and proud to be part of ST^2 and to help its development along. I take this as a sign that I must be doing something right.

I have always said that I am aiming to live a life of purpose and meaning. This is also the perspective I hope both my children have come to appreciate and take on themselves. I am thrilled to further this personal goal of mine while serving others through ST^2.
