“I set up monthly giving to Cornerstone Craftsman because I believe in the program. As a teacher, I see kids getting lost and leaving school with pessimism and resentment toward the world they are entering. Cornerstone Craftsman is different. I’ve seen Roberto and his crew reach kids on an individual level and show them a different future. Cornerstone Craftsman loves these kids. And guess what? Their lives are literally changed. I’ve seen it . . . kid going from posting on Instagram about wanting to be a scammer or dealer to mentoring others on the importance of learning the trades. Economically, giving each month makes the most sense for us. Our family of four (two teachers!) is on a strict budget. Monthly giving feels like just adding to my retirement or flexible-spending account, and I don’t have to plan for a big donation.”
