| The Starfish Fund was founded based on the life experience of Bill Cumming who, over the last 30+ years, as means allowed, has given time, shelter, opportunity and money in service of others. Now a part of The Boothby Institute, the trustees of that organization share in its vision. Donors to non-profit organizations often feel that they are “helping” the people to whom funds are given and do not experience a sense of contribution to their own lives. While there is no question that these funds contribute to the ability of Starfish participants to get a leg-up in their lives, we ask that donors look carefully to see and experience the value they are receiving from that contribution. Our goal is for us to know that every starving child, every life wasted in or after prison is the life of a person, related to us. How their lives turn out directly contributes to the quality of our lives. Ultimately, it is our goal that the initial recipients of funds will become the strongest of its contributors. We are deeply grateful for contributions from every source. The Starfish Fund is served by several “Advisory Voices” – individuals who have graciously agreed to provide expertise in their discipline and act as a sounding board for new ideas and any challenges The Starfish Fund may encounter. At present, those individuals include: Quin Frazer, Partner, Gardner, Carton & Douglas; Richard Malley, Headmaster Emeritus Wilbraham & Monson Academy; Michael Neill, author and coach; Matt Schuller, MS, RHIA, Project Manager; Senator Ethan Strimling, Executive Director, Portland West; Senator, State of Maine and Kelly Williams, Co-Founder of Tiers To You. |
