Join Dwell with Dignity and see how we give families and furniture a second chance.

“Dwell with Dignity is changing the future for families.”

“One of the easiest ways to have employees feel ownership of their jobs and of the organization as a whole is to not micromanage them. How can they grow and develop their own workflow if their manager is constantly telling them how they should be operating in the workplace?”

“As entrepreneurs, it is difficult for us to separate ourselves from our work, and even more difficult to set boundaries around our working hours. Carving out time for connection will leave you rejuvenated and re-energized, which will allow you to engage in both your personal and professional life more successfully.”

“Leadership is one of my favorite topics, as well as one that I constantly apply and refine in my roles leading a Dallas-area nonprofit and teaching management and leadership at the University of Houston. Leadership evolves over time as the driving force of innovation in management.”

“Public relations can be a delicate balancing act. If your business does PR right, it could skyrocket in popularity overnight. If, however, you run afoul of public opinion, you may find your company falls as fast as it grew. Startups, especially, may be at a disadvantage. ”

“Many entrepreneurs will concede that their worst problem is overthinking complex decisions. The issue with overthinking is not only that it stifles creativity and innovation; it also erodes your confidence as an entrepreneur and can make you second-guess yourself.”

“To me, influential people are passionate people. You don’t have to be the smartest or most accomplished to be truly influential. The people that I find myself drawn to time and again are those who exude energy and confidence and are truly present in their work.”

“Ownership is key. When I'm hiring, I always look for people who take pride in their work and not only feel ownership over their job and duties, but also feel a sense of responsibility for the organization as a whole. You can pay people to work, but you can't pay people to care.”

“For struggling families who have finally managed to obtain permanent housing, making their residence a home is another stressful task. Dwell With Dignity relieves this burden by donating furniture, bedding, kitchen supplies, and more.”

“I still can’t believe that I get to lead an organization as amazing as Dwell with Dignity. Throughout my nonprofit career, I have been following the amazing work Dwell with Dignity has been doing, and have continued to be inspired by their creativity, innovation, and love of those they serve.”
