A message from Vivian…
Growing up, the holiday season was always the time my family gave back to the community. My parents always reminded me by their actions how important this time of year is in making those less fortunate or in need feel abundance and joy.
The holidays were typically spent with my family driving all over the city. After paying respect to my elders on both sides of our family, I remember spending hours in the back seat of our car as my parents drove us from place to place, passing out boxes and boxes of fruit and dropping off pies to friends, colleagues and leaders in the community. We would also visit the local food kitchens, helping to feed the homeless and make donations. When we were young, my brother and I always dreaded those long days in the car. Back then I didn’t fully realize what my parents were teaching us. Today I can truly appreciate how my parents exposed us to those selfless acts of kindness, year after year.
Since childhood, the idea of giving back was ingrained in me and remains essential to me now as an adult. As business owners, both Dennis and I perpetuate this mindset. We believe giving back and helping others is an essential part of our leadership. It is also a big part of how we have achieved this level of success throughout all of our years in this business. This season, our wish for you is abundance and joy. Pass it on!
Happy Holidays!
