A SEASON OF GIVING IS YEAR-ROUND FOR THOSE IN NEED

The quote “To the world you may be one person; but to one person you may be the world” could not be truer than for the Executive Director of the Easthampton, Massachusetts Community Center, Robin Bialecki. Not only does Robin and her team help 3600 families a month with food and clothing, but she also provides for the children of incarcerated men at the Hampshire County Sheriff’s Office. A definite role model for any community around the world. And staying with the theme of children and giving, Sheriff Patrick Cahillane, of Hampshire County, was awarded the Paul Cellucci Award from the Children’s Trust of Boston, Massachusetts, for his team’s work, both behind the wall and in the community through their Nurturing Fathers Program.

$50 & A BUS FARE WON’T GET YOU FAR, BUT CHERI GARCIA BELIEVES OTHERWISE

The Dalai Lama defines compassions as “a sensitivity to the suffering of others, with a commitment to do something about it”.  Cheri Garcia, a social innovator and Founder of the second chance staffing firm, Cornbread Hustle, knows all too well about addiction, recovery and the challenges those with a record face upon re-entering society.  Cheri’s trajectory to launch Cornbread Hustle, and become recognized as a leader in second chance recruiting and staffing was definitely not a straight line, and although now a seven-figure company, Cheri says she still has her bad days, but she is always driven to help more because as she says, “…One can’t find their future success with $50 and a bus fare upon reentering society….”
