Tom Leydiker Brings the Tom Leydiker Foundation to Life
A nonprofit addressing short and long-term needs of people around the world
New York, NY, March 28, 2017 (Newswire.com) - In November of 2016, Tom Leydiker founded the Tom Leydiker Foundation in order to provide assistance to established charitable organizations. Through the Tom Leydiker Foundation, a more significant impact can be made at both a local and global level by addressing short-term needs (such as disaster relief) and long-term needs (like economic empowerment).
At his very core, Tom Leydiker is both an entrepreneur and an altruist. Throughout his life, these ventures have been independent of one another, flourishing through the pursuit of other successful business endeavors and contributions to support various organizations. Tom recognized the lack of resources being attributed to necessary charities and intends to do his part through the Tom Leydiker Foundation by funding these charities so they are able to provide substantial support to those in need.
"Philanthropy is, in many ways, a form of self-expression. If you want to know what a man is passionate about, look at the charities that he gives to. I think that, in my giving, I'm making a bold statement about what matters to me."
