Strategic Pause Reflecting on 28 Years of Impact and Visioning the Future

As we celebrate 28 years of impactful philanthropy, it's time for us to pause and reflect. Our journey began with the birth of our first child with cystic fibrosis, and since then, we have achieved goals we once thought impossible. This moment calls for reflection and a renewed vision for the next 25 years.

Taking a step back to reflect is not a halt in progress but a strategic pause to ensure our future actions are even more impactful. This pause allows us to reassess our achievements, understand the lessons learned, and envision a future that builds on our past successes.

Our generosity, gratitude, and integrity have guided us through nearly three decades of service. Reflecting on these values, we draw inspiration from leaders who have shaped the world with their vision and determination. Perseverance is vital to achieving ambitious goals.

We have learned the importance of a people-first mindset. Building meaningful relationships through genuine care and respect has been a cornerstone of our success. It will continue to drive our efforts moving forward.

Even small acts of generosity can create significant impacts. This philosophy will remain at the heart of our future endeavors as we seek to make a difference in small and large ways.

Visionary leadership will propel us into the future. We will challenge assumptions, cultivate curiosity, and embrace innovative solutions to break new ground.

Reflecting on my father's legacy, I remember how he taught us the value of hard work and compassion. He instilled the importance of taking action, not just talking about it. His commitment to education and support for youth has left an indelible mark on our community.

Warren Buffett's wisdom on legacy-minded stewardship reminds us of the importance of mentoring and developing future leaders. We commit to building a legacy that inspires and elevates lives for generations.

We are excited about the possibilities as we take this strategic pause to reflect and plan. Together, we can envision a future that ignites positive change and leaves a lasting impact.
