I started raising money for Charity when I was ten years old in my hometown of Hawthorne, NJ. I thought it would be a great idea to have a fair-like event with games and all my friends could come and play at the games for a few pennies. We would have a good time and in the end we could give some money to Muscular Dystrophy. I was right, it was fun and we raised $11.45 - I was thrilled. 

   So starting from that age I have been involved in a lot of fundraising efforts. A lot of events and mostly ones I have initiated on my own. I have done so much of it that I had my own 501 (c) 3 charity, called Charity House Foundation. I am extremely proud that all the monies raised in the name of Charity House (Over $500,000.00) and distributed to the people in need. There were no salaried personnel, no free trips for staff, no budget for any extras to anybody 

helping and especially no money going to me for administration. All the money went to those in need!

   I have a lot of fun raising money for so many charities e.g.: Multiple Sclerosis, Tunnel To Towers, Troopers Assisting Troops, Wounded Warrior Project, VFW's, American Cancer Society and many, many more. Also I am still doing it these days even though not as much as my younger days.
