Programs We Support
Each year, our team selects a non-profit organization for whom we volunteer our time, talent and financial resources.
North Texas Bank
In 2008-2009, 2011-2014, 2020, 2022, and 2023 we chose the North Texas Food Bank as the organization on which we want to focus our efforts. Their mission is to support the nutritional needs of children, seniors, and families through education, advocacy and strategic partnerships. Last year, the North Texas Food Bank provided access to 125.6 million meals to those in need within a 13-county service area through a variety of dedicated programs. Each program presents a unique solution to the ongoing pursuit of closing the hunger gap in North Texas.
Our team had a fun and rewarding experience sorting, weighing, and bagging fresh vegetables at the food bank. The staff was friendly, the facility was sanitary, and the process was orderly and efficient.

Susan G. Komen
In 2021, our team chose to focus on Susan G. Komen, an organization dedicated to addressing breast cancer on multiple levels including research, community health, patient advocacy, global outreach and public policy. This organization serves 254 counties, has donated over one billion dollars towards breast cancer research, and helped 10,000 people gain access to care and information. We also chose this charity to honor our own Janna Birkner, who is a ten year, two-time breast cancer survivor.
Janna was our team’s captain for the More Than Pink Walk - Susan G. Komen’s signature walk event in Dallas. In addition to raising funds to support their mission, the walk is a way for the community to honor those we’ve lost to this disease, and support current breast cancer patients, survivors, and their families.

Camp John Marc
In 2018, we focused on Camp John Marc, which was created around the following questions: 1) How does the Camping experience relate to the treatment and management of Disease and 2) Could camp accommodate acutely ill children? With avid outdoorsmen and nature lovers on the team, we realize the impact that getting out into nature can have on both physical and mental health.
Dallas Holocaust and Human Rights Museum
In 2007, 2010, and 2017 we worked contribute to the Dallas Holocaust and Human Rights Museum. DHHRM focuses on bringing attention to events of holocaust and the proceeding developments in international human rights.
United Way
In 2015 and 2016 we chose to support United way which focuses on addressing education, economic, and health challenges across the US and abroad.
The Wilkinson Center
In 2006 we chose to support a local charity in The Wilkinson Center. The Wilkinson Center is founded on the principles of Compassion. Community. Commitment to Excellence, and Financial Responsibility. The Wilkinson Center offers adult education, food and support services, and Job Training and Workforce Development programs.
The Retina Foundation
In 2023, our team supported The Retina Foundation. Their mission is to prevent vision loss and restore sight through innovate research and treatment. Rick has had first-hand experience working with this organization and has had a very positive experience with them.
US Ski & Snowboard
Our team made a donation to US Ski & Snowboard in 2023. Unlike their peer organizations, they do not receive government funding for their athletes and programs. Donations fund year-round training, development, competition and educational needs.
Children’s Medical Center of Dallas
In 2024, the team decided to support Children’s Medical Center of Dallas. Their partnership with UT Southwestern has helped them to become a leader in life-changing treatments, innovative technology and research. Since they started in 1913, their commitment to community has gone beyond high quality health care to children as they serve as advocates to the children they serve.
