Businesses Supporting Communities

All too often, when business leaders achieve “success” either in their position of leadership or in their profits, it is easy to look back at all the hard work that was required to reach that level of success.  It becomes easy to believe that all that hard work entitles the business leader to revel in that success indefinitely.  However, the “I-deserve-this” mentality doesn’t recognize that many of us are placed in the positions we are in so that we may bless others in local and global communities with our resources.  We can bless others through providing needed resources with our finances and we can use our position of leadership as a platform to speak out against injustices.  Small business is the heart of America and plays a major role in supporting local communities.  By teaming up with other small businesses, your contributions of money and time can make a difference in communities across the globe.

The Weikel Law Firm, LLC has established a non-profit foundation that encourages successful businesses and business leaders to give back a portion of their net profits and their time.  Donations to the foundation will be used by the foundation for two purposes; 1) to educate marketplace leaders on how to put their company in a position to bless; and 2)  to bless local and global communities through giving of finances and time to educate, train, rescue, care, treat, feed, clothe, and provide shelter to those in need.   

If your business is interested in learning how to participate in the “Businesses Supporting Communities” project, please email: KristiWeikel@WeikelLaw.com.

Also, coming soon: www.businessessupportingcommunities.com where we will provide opportunities for businesses to give, serve and bless local and global communities.  At this site, detailed instructions will be posted on how non-profits can apply to the foundation for grants for the approved causes.
