Albert Einstein once said "It is every man's obligation to put back into the world at least the equivalent of what he takes out of it."

You can see by the "snow on the top of my mountain" that it's time for me to start balancing my "life's account"!

I do that principally through Make The Difference Network (www.mtdn.com), an internet portal created by my family and a dedicated team of Social Entrepreneurs that helps Nonprofit organizations better tell their important stories, helps them raise additional funds by leveraging available, but not often used, Web-based tools/strategies, and connects individuals and businesses with Nonprofits in mutually beneficial ways through the use of powerful Cause Marketing tools.

Let me tell you a at least one story why..

Musings on Labor Day - Home Office View. September 2 2008 at 2:05 AM

I’ll miss my waterfront office location!
My old office view!
For the last year, the view from my home office was the beautiful Marina Del Rey and the channel leading to the ocean with its almost constant fascinating boat and watercraft traffic.
