About our Guest: 

Bob DePasquale’s generosity journey started at age 18 when he was diagnosed with cancer and experienced the tragic events of 9/11 in just a few short days.  He wouldn’t be around to speak about if it weren’t for some amazing acts of generosity. Bob realized the powerful force that the giving mindset is after experiencing his life-threatening illness and the terrorist attacks.  He spent 15 years learning how to apply giving principles in his own business and it is now his mission to help others do the same. Organizations that have a generous culture are bound to attract better employees and better customers.
