Everyone seems to talk about their plan(s) to achieve freedom and great wealth. However, it is rare to read on here about plans to make someone else's day a little brighter. I know personally that I get a much better feeling when I give rather than receive. It truly excites me to surprise someone deserving with something special. From now on Kelly Landscaping will donate a percentage of profits to those less fortunate and will do our best to hire members of struggling families in our service areas. Do you guys take part in any type of charitable giving?
