As a leader, I’ve been fortunate to see firsthand the kind of impact we can make when we lead with purpose.
That mindset really took shape for me in 2025 when I was a District Sales Manager. For six months, our district ranked #1 in RC Cares sales – not because of a number we were chasing, but because we focused on causes that were personal to our team.
One of those causes is especially close to me – dog rescue. I’ve always loved dogs (I have seven of my own – 13 if you count fosters), and I was able to rally my district around supporting a local foster program. Together, we raised over $6,000 through RC Cares.
That effort turned into something even bigger. Not long after, I drove 41 rescue dogs to Canada in a van that had been repaired using RC Cares funds – helping them reach their forever homes. It was a 60-hour journey from Friday morning to Sunday evening, with just one stop to shower – but it’s something I’ll never forget.
We also supported causes closer to home. When a team member’s mother was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer and could no longer work during treatment, our district came together to raise more than $3,400 to support their family.
Moments like these are why RC Cares matters. It’s not just about raising money – it’s about creating real impact for people and communities we care about.
A lot of that inspiration comes from leaders like (RC Cares Director) Ron Wallace and (Regional Director of Sales) Jeremy Willams. They lead with generosity and heart, and they’ve helped shape how I approach giving back – making it personal, meaningful, and something our teams can truly rally behind.
