Supporting our local community is important to us. We volunteer at the Food Bank of Central and Eastern North Carolina. We also continue to support other local charities such as North Carolina Senior Games, Triangle Women in Golf and American Diabetes Association Tour de Cure. In addition, animal rescues are important to us. Guayabo Animal Rescue in Costa Rica is one such animal rescue we support.

Our other local community connections include membership in the Cary Chamber of Commerce and the Raleigh Chamber of Commerce.
