Charitable Giving Opportunity

 May 23, 2024

Each year, my Team and I host a community charity event that allows us to select a local cause to support. This year we have selected the needy families from Alpharetta Elementary in Alpharetta, Georgia. We are focusing on providing food baskets and grocery gift cards to help ease the food insecurity many local families are currently facing.
