Rita Foglio:

We would take our granddaughter to church on Sundays and someone noticed she had a slight limp and they suggested it would benefit Lauren if she came to Shriners in Greenville. From the minute she entered the door at Shriners, it relieved some of that anxiety. Her physical therapy was amazing. They took care of everything.

We always tended to volunteer, but we were now giving financially to Shriners, going through a charitable gift annuity. It was easy for us to understand, had the ability to defer taxes. You could choose to have a dividend, so you would actually have some income coming in quarterly. I just thought it simplified the process of giving. I can direct our giving to certain departments so it's more personalized.

Domenick Foglio:

It is the most rewarding thing that I ever could do. And I think anyone would feel the same way. It's priceless.

Rita Foglio:

I can see my money working in real time, makes it all worthwhile.
