Why Every Memory Matters: A Personal Story Behind Our Memory Preservation Program This service holds a special place in my heart. When my grandmother moved, we lost track of so many precious items and memories in the chaos of the transition. Looking back, I wish we had something like this - a way to preserve and document all those treasured pieces of her life. That's exactly why we created this service at Summit Solutions. Every family deserves the chance to preserve their legacy in a meaningful way. Our Memory Preservation Program includes: • Professional photography of cherished items • Custom-designed family photo albums • Before & after video documentation • White-glove delivery of heirlooms to loved ones It's not just about moving items; it's about protecting memories and ensuring stories continue to be shared across generations. Being able to provide this service to other families is truly meaningful - it's turning a personal lesson into something that can help so many others. Perfect for: Downsizing seniors -Family estate transitions -Preserving generational stories -Sharing family heritage Don't let precious memories fade. Let's create your family's memory preservation plan today. #SeniorLiving #FamilyLegacy #MemoryPreservation #SummitSolutions #TreasureValley

Books open our minds. Books are our greatest allies. They challenge us to envision a better future while broadening our perspectives. In the #philanthropy world books aren’t just resources, they are tools for transformation. They inspire fresh ideas, foster collaboration, and remind us of the shared humanity at the heart of every mission. Philanthropy books help us dive into case studies, explore innovative strategies, or simply immerse ourselves in stories that deepen our empathy. Books and reading support us in making more informed and compassionate decisions. 👏 Kudos to the 2024 Miami Book Fair —celebrating readers, writers, and the countless stories that connect us all. 📚 What’s a book that has shaped your journey in #philanthropy? BTW: My photo didn't capture all the magic!

What effect has Rock n’ Roll had on the world? And what are the diverse implications of us humans industrializing these bone deep rhythms, harmonies, and soulful sublimations? Why do you think it is that we respond so strongly to the sound, look, movement, and spirit of this music? And, how does all of this connect to how Western society treats the wild, natural world? Please join the discussion during this 6 week course! This an abridged version of a 16 week course I’ve taught at SUNY New Paltz, during my adjunct days. Course will run on Wednesdays this winter (8pm ET), but if you have a group you know who needs a different schedule, we can work something out! Half of the proceeds will go towards the Whale Sanctuary Project. Whales and Rock n’ Roll have a lot more in common than one might expect. Besides taking this class, please consider making a reoccurring donation to the WSP and other sanctuaries and organizations to help end animal captivity and exploitation. A New Year’s Visualization: That Wikie and Keijo move to the Whale Sanctuary (Project ) in Nova Scotia, and live the rest of their lives without tricks, performances, or exploitation. Just care, love, peaceful healing, and the freedom to swim, flow, and be the Orcas they are, and the Orcas they will grow into being.

Dear friends and colleagues: In this time of DEI pushback and "critical race theory," it's up to all of us to preserve the important stories of the past to make sure that our history isn't erased.

It isn't just #BlackHistory or #CommunityHistory, it's #AmericanHistory, and it belongs to all of us. #PreserveOurHistory
