Why i Give
by Nancy Felix
Why do I give to the Lambi Fund of Haiti? I give because I am wired to give. Growing up, my parents, who were much less blessed financially than I am today, gave every chance they got. The spirit of giving is something that is embedded in my genes and that I am trying to carry forward with my children.
I give personally because as an engineering manager for a major technology company, my family and I are blessed, and it's important to share that blessing and give to those others who may be less fortunate and in need. I give because it's the right thing to do. In this global economy we are all neighbors, and when we can, if we can, however we can, we should help one another. I give because as a successful Haitian American woman living in America, I feel that I have an obligation to help not only other Haitians, but anyone else who might be in need. In my eyes, Lambi Fund is one of the best ways to make a difference helping other Haitians become self-sufficient.
