In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, this week Megan is sitting down with Teresa Richardson, Executive Director of Help the Fight, a local non-profit dedicated to assisting families going through breast cancer treatment. If you’re looking to make an impact in your community, Teresa offers a lot of great insight into alternative ways that you can support non-profits besides just writing a check. Learn more about how to pick the right cause for your business, what non-profits actually need, and how your business can make a difference.
