We have many different clients in many different areas but little of what we do is as important to me as our work in the charity arena.

 

Sunday morning pre-8 AM I was in Central Park with a number of 5WPR team members for our client event, Voices against Brain Cancer.  It was an event I will not forget for a long time– such emotion and devotion.  Brain cancer is something which affects the young and old – and I was overcome with emotion at meeting some of the brave people coping with brain cancer.  So many stories.

 

Such devotion and so many brave people who lent their voice to the fight against brain cancer.  Consider making a donation online to help find a cure for brain cancer by clicking here

 

In the afternoon I attended an educational event for a non-profit educational organization I am on the board of and a touching speaker quoted Robert Kennedy in saying: “Some men see things as they are and say, ‘Why’? I dream of things that never were and say, ‘Why not’?”

 

Don’t stop dreaming to be great and dreaming to make a difference.  We match employee donations to charity, and personally I established the Ronn Torossian Family Foundation to give to causes I feel strongly about.

 

Pick a cause and do something.  Make the world a better place.
