Why do you want to do this?

I am most happy when I am giving back to my community or to worthy cause such as the children of Haiti. I want to be able to give the younger generations the opportunities that I have enjoyed in my life.

What three things will you need to make this happen?

I have created The Jonathan LaGuerre Foundation but not yet have tax exempt status.

I need to raise at least $5,000 for the initial operating cost and a fund raising party.

I need to get more people involved. Since the foundation is a start-up, it has been difficult to get the right people involved.

What is the biggest barrier to your achieving this?

My biggest barrier is time. I work full time and working toward to utilizing my time efficiently.
