I had several events and church road trips to different parts of the state and out of state which as a result became well-known a friendly environment. One popular event was called the "Breakfast Bash", which twice a year reached a goal of $20k-$25k each event. The "Bash" was on a Sunday morning and on average we served 400 - 600 meals. The money generated helped us open one the largest Food Pantries in Buffalo. We served over 1400 families per month with groceries.

As Business Manager I was responsible for all financials; including reporting to our Finance Committee once a month.
