We've raised enough money to essentially get us to this point.

And that was the day that we were launching.

And after we got our pledges from that event, we ended up with $60,000 in the bank as a starting point.

And so I think the biggest thing that I can tell people who are interested in doing good, remember, net positive.

You can do net positive, you're helping out the community.

And then dream big, because that's one end of the spectrum and the other end, and anywhere in between is successful.

Hit me, yeah, let's go Clarence.

So this is something that I've only become aware of as of recently.

The one thing that I keep going back

too, is that especially in our community, our community is 50-ish thousand people population.

We're not a huge million, 2 million population with huge skyscrapers.

We're a small community.

And I think we've kind of realized that we can be big fish in a little sea sort of deal.

And the people that you meet

you're one degree away from everybody.

And if you find the right person and they connect you with that one degree person, all of a sudden doors open up.

And that's how we met our partner, Sherry Olson.

And she was a retired physician.

She was working at a facility as a doctor in her role.

She collapsed and had a sudden cardiac arrest moment.
