Take Your Game to the Next Level!
The status quo SUCKS. Who wants a life that's average and ordinary? Not me! That's why I connect businesses and community leaders with nonprofits, so that collectively, we can all leave the world a better place. For 40 years, I've made an unwavering commitment to community service and philanthropic causes. I've collaborated with or served on more than 100 non-profit boards. What started as a pastime is now my passion. For those of you looking for more joy in your life and unquantifiable fulfillment, let’s talk..
Howie Nestel has spent 4 decades creating an extraordinary life by serving through non-profit leadership and philanthropy.
