The Friday Feature w/Sean: Giving Back

This past week has shown the incredible power of community in the face of adversity. Our area was hit hard by two severe thunderstorms within just 12 hours, one of which included tornadoes with an EF-3 rating. Despite multiple-day power outages, first responders, utility workers, business owners, and community members all came together, demonstrating remarkable resilience and unity.

At work, I witnessed an inspiring spirit of cooperation as co-workers and strangers pulled together for a common cause, working tirelessly to restore power to thousands of homes, farms, and businesses. This sense of community and support has truly highlighted the importance of giving back, which I will be doing tomorrow by joining friends and new acquaintances on the golf course to support 18ForeLife. I don’t play golf often, but this event is special – 18ForeLife donates every penny raised to local families battling cancer, providing $1,000 “love offerings” with no questions asked. To date, the organization has given away over $3 million!

If you’re reading this or watching the video, remember that each of us has the power to help someone else. Sometimes it’s as simple as a wave, a smile, or a pat on the back. If you’re fortunate enough to make a financial contribution, I encourage you to find a cause that speaks to you and give today.

Let’s celebrate our blessings by being a blessing to others.
