“This one is really dear to us. Mark Anderson, the father of the founder, is a good friend of mine. His daughter, Sawyer, is only 14. I had her on my podcast and what she has done with her nonprofit is amazing. She has raised over $1 million for people in Zambia to have clean water.” “It’s so special that she wants to help people and that she has that global perspective.” “We’ve donated to her charity the past few years and we have also attended her charity gala, which is pretty awesome.” “I knew that there were people out there who didn’t have access to clean water, but you don’t really understand the scope of things until you have all of the information in front of you. We take things like that for granted every day living where we live. You turn on the faucet and you never expect horribly infected water to come out, but not everyone has that.”

Matthew’s Voice Project

“Back in the fall, we did a coat drive with Sandy’s Donuts. Sandy’s kind of functioned as a drop-off point for the coat drive. We were able to collect well over 100 different coats, mittens, hats, and gloves for kids experiencing homelessness in the FM area.”

“As a former educator, I was aware of the issue firsthand. There are kids that don’t have the simple amenities. It’s so important to give those kids a chance and the basic things they need for survival. People don’t realize how many kids in this community are showing up to school in survival mode. Some kids are hopping from one couch to the next and learning is not their top priority, it’s survival. Matthew’s Voice Project is a fantastic organization that is working to help out.”
