When I met Reb Eric, I had no clue what he had done in the world of Philanthropy, I still don't. He was so humble and unassuming. I'm taking on a few gestures of kindness (as suggested above) and a personal mitzvah in his honor. Happy Birthday Legend.

Mr. Samson always greeted me with a smile and had time to exchange words no matter how busy he was. He listened intently, cared deeply and had a memory like an elephant.

As I step into this new year, I am making a personal commitment to dedicate more of my time, energy, and skills to supporting and enriching the lives of children.
