In 2001, I attended my first National Institute of Pension Administrators (NIPA) Annual Forum and Expo (NAFE). For the last 25 years, NIPA has been a huge part of my personal and professional development.

For the last 10 years, I've had a beard. Part of the reason was that I heard at a NAFE event that facial hair speckled with grey makes you look more distinguished and scholarly. There are more than speckles of grey in my beard now.

For the last 4 years, Metropolitan Performing Arts (MPA) has been a huge part of my life and my son's life. Watching him grow and thrive as part of the MPA community has brought untold joy to my heart.

As the Fundraising Chair for MPA and the Membership Chair for NIPA, I thought I would bring my two passions together. You can make a tax-deductible donation to MPA. For each $10 dollars you give, you'll receive one raffle ticket. Any company matches, will count towards the total number of tickets you get in the raffle. The winner will be given the honor of shaving off my beard at this year's NAFE. The event will be held May 3-6 at Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas.
