Changing Through Giving

My goal with the Mary Parker Foundation is to ensure that our scholarship recipients stay in school and get ongoing support and mentoring through the Foundation.

Starting 5 years ago, The Mary Parker Foundation is just shy of donating $200,000 in college funds for students – I’m proud to say that I have NOT done this alone!

When you work to make an impact, to create change and long-lasting relevance, working in a team is the best way to do it. The generosity of The Mary Parker Foundation Community amazes me every year - - and by being amazed, I am motivated.

I take my lessons from some of the great masters of social change in history…

“Do your little bit of good where you are; it’s those little bits of good put together that overwhelm the world!” -Desmond Tutu

“As I grow older, I pay less attention to what men say. I just watch what they do.”

-Andrew Carnegie

“It is easy to love the people far away. It is not always easy to love those close to us…This is where our love for each other must start.” -Mother Teresa

Remember, you don’t have to be rich to contribute, to give, to make a difference – a little can go a long way!
