I volunteer my time, technology, and business experience to the following nonprofit organizations all located in Sussex County, Delaware.

Insight Meditation Community of Lewes (www.imc-lewes.org)
The Insight Meditation Community of Lewes (IMC-Lewes) is a group committed to using the practice of meditation to explore the dharma, the spiritual path delineated by Gotama Buddha 2500 years ago. Although we call ourselves an Insight, or Vipassana, Meditation community, our group includes persons of other Buddhist and non-Buddhist spiritual traditions who wish to use meditation to deepen their spiritual practice. We welcome both new and experienced.

Kody’s Kids (www.kodyskids.org)
Our mission is to improve the lives of at-risk children by providing them with essential material items and basic educational skills for a healthy and productive start in life, while engaging the community in a collaborative effort. Kody’s Kids consist of programs that assist children at risk in Sussex County Delaware.

Lewes Historical Society (www.historiclewes.org)
The Lewes Historical Society began in 1961 as local residents identified a need to preserve Lewes’ architectural heritage and for an organization to act as a steward for Lewes’ past – a history that stretches back to humble Dutch origins in 1631. The Society has been recognized as one of Delaware’s greatest assets and has been honored for our efforts by the National Trust for Historic Preservation and by the American Association for State & Local History. The Society celebrates the heritage of Lewes — “The First Town in The First State!”

Rehoboth Beach Writers’ Guild (www.rehobothbeachwritersguild.com)
Writing is about taking risks. It’s about challenges, about unpredictability, about change. And because it’s about those things, it’s exciting, at times frightening. You’ll find a comrade in ink, a soul mate in literature, and you’ll be an important part of the world of storytellers. Please take a moment to learn about the Delaware coastal writing community.
