What he has done to help the community: Hillcrest would like to publicly acknowledge his service to our community. He's donated thousands of dollars to Hillcrest in the past years just alone in product, monetary donations from Spirit Nites and help with his staff serving meals for our literature nights. He also supports the West Side Homeless shelter on Fred Road and gives free smoothies for a year as an auction item.  He gives all excess paper product to the shelter before it goes to waste. He supports every middle and elementary in the area with Spirit Nights. He's just an all-around hero.


Why he is so great to volunteer with: He has always said yes. No matter what.  He is our biggest fan.
