Profiles of Charity.

CELEBRATING PHILANTHROPIC EXCELLENCE

The charitable profiles that follow are a signature service of Cannon & Caius’ Generosity Mediazine.

These charity vignettes chronicle nonprofit and philanthropic venture collaborators attempting to bring you the best charitable effort they can, whether their resources be abundant or scarce, tried or true.

Our objective is to share with you how each does excellence as well as the hard-knock lessons that come with the effort.

Here, in these pages, you will find the positive and the possible, not the negative.

Please make certain you take a look at the older posts as well as the newer posts.

There are quite a few quality charities to be introduced to on all of these pages.

We look at a wide variety of factors before posting any charitable venture here. But the most important criteria we use is simple: would we donate to these charities or we would we work for them as well?

Enjoy the fruits of their labor.

They are working mighty hard for those they serve.
