Testimonials

Managing Member

A seasoned real estate investor and developer, Charles brings his business acumen and philanthropic spirit to the team. With over 40 years of experience as a Boy Scout leader, he has learned the true value of helping others and changing lives. Recently, on a Boy Scout mission trip to Uganda, Charles was moved by the cheerfulness and optimism of some young people living in poverty. He was struck by their intelligence, happiness, and determination to succeed despite their impoverished circumstances. Therefore Charles has set his sights on a new mission - to help relocate some of these young people to the US and enroll them in US colleges. His previous experience in assisting two young ladies from Kenya has given him the confidence and knowledge necessary to successfully navigate the relocation and enrollment process.
