Charity Begins in the Home

Sarah McMahan is not only donating to help fight children’s cancer herself, she’s even getting her little ones in on the action. Well beyond merely playing it forward, she’s developing the next generation of donors as her son Josiah even gets in on the action to supplement his mom’s giving! They paired up to support the Northern Nevada Childrens Cancer Foundation. The Northern Nevada Children’s Cancer Foundation’s vision is to reach every family affected by childhood cancer in the Northern Nevada and Eastern Sierra regions. Our mission is to enhance the quality of life for children with cancer and their families by providing financial assistance and compassionate support programs while advocating for increased research funds and raising public awareness.

To learn more for yourself about the light they bring to the lives and families of children fighting cancer, please visit: http://www.nvchildrenscancer.org/

As a sign of our support and appreciation, Corporate Visions has made a matching donation to the Northern Nevada Childrens Cancer Foundation on behalf of Sarah McMahan.

Nicci Hammer(el)s out a Helping Hand

Posted by | Blog Updates | No Comments

Nicci has opted to make her donations in a manner that generate new donations all on their own! Through the KIVA site, she has made a donation toward a loan used to help a small business owner in Uganda to build their ability to self-sustain. As these “loans” are paid back to the charity site by recipients, the returned proceeds may then be used to do the same thing again. Talk about maximizing ROI! Way to not only pay and play it forward, Nicci!

KIVA is a non-profit organization with a mission to connect people through lending to alleviate poverty. Leveraging the internet and a worldwide network of microfinance institutions, Kiva lets individuals lend as little as $25 to help create opportunity around the world
