If you could be any animal what would it be and why?

A dolphin so I could be silly and swim all day. –Wendy Kahland

Monkey, definitely. That would give me a valid reason for always being on the move, jumping from task to task, and allowing myself to live in the moment at times! –Cheryl Turner

Do you have a favorite charity that you wish more people knew about?

My favorite charity is one right here in town: Autism Family Network of Lincoln. They support and advocate for individuals on the autism spectrum and their families through providing social opportunities, recreational experiences, and various community inclusion initiatives. The things they do and the lengths they go to promote a positive, respectful image of people with autism and their families is just unbelievable. Being connected with them has been a total game changer for our family. –Maggie Thompson

It's impossible for me to choose a "favorite" charity. A bit like choosing a favorite child . . . BUT, a charity I wish more people knew about is Kiva.org. Kiva is an international nonprofit, founded in 2005 with a mission to expand financial access to help underserved communities thrive. They do this by crowdfunding loans. By lending as little as $25 on Kiva, you can be part of the solution and make a real difference in someone’s life. How cool is that? –Mark Ells

Teammates Mentoring! –Becky Jones
