AGGIES FOR AFRICA EXCEEDS GOAL FOR SHOE DRIVE
With more than a week left to donate, 1,754 pairs of shoes have been collected

Last year Aggies for Africa collected 500 pairs of shoes for their first annual shoe drive. When planning for the drive this year they wanted to exceed the goal so they decided to triple their efforts. The goal was set at 1,500 pairs of shoes. Three local businesses were involved as well as Ellis and Hillcrest elementary schools.

Thirteen students came to help count the shoes that had been collected and thrown into mounds in the Service Center located on the third floor of the Taggart Student Center. The count was 1,754 pairs of shoes, with a few hundred more to come.

“We will most likely quadruple our goal from last year. The support from the student body and the community has been overwhelming,” said Allie Gardner, campus relations committee chair of Aggies for Africa.

Aggies for Africa will still be accepting shoes in the Service Center until Friday, October 17. The shoes will then be given to Green Eyes in Africa, a non-profit organization based in Provo. They will then ship the shoes to Cameroon to be distributed to orphanages and communities where needed.

Nick,

Preston Parker, president of the Cache Valley Area Investors Association, is offering free financial advice and open conversation about various financial topics. Parker is holding meetings every other Thursday evening at the Cache Chamber of Commerce located at 160 N. Main, Logan.

Parker’s philosophy is that you can work in a job you love and within a matter of a few years you can make enough passive income that you don’t have to be concerned with your finances.

The meetings offer a non-threatening environment for anyone to come and share ideas and information about how to become financially independent.

BECOME FINANCIALLY INDEPENDENT WITHOUT CHANGING JOBS
Preston Parker teaches how to be happy and financially secure doing a job you love

Logan, UT—President Parker began the Cache Valley Area Investors Association, CVAIA, a non-profit organization in July, 2007. His goal is to provide the knowledge to help people who are interested, become financially independent. “Find a job you love, you will do it better and ultimately make more money,” said Parker.

Parker believes that, “Money is not happiness after your basic needs are met.”

Parker also talks of the importance of earning passive income and not just active income. The difference is that passive income is making money whether or not you are thinking about it.

CVAIA meets together every other Thursday at 7 p.m. at the Cache Chamber of Commerce located at 160 North Main, Logan. Everyone is invited to come and be a part of a non-threatening environment where you can learn and ask questions about becoming financially independent.

People in America have ample opportunity and options to be able to work in a job they enjoy. Understanding and managing passive income makes this possible. There are many associations which are helping educate people in how to truly become financially independent. Cache Valley Area Investors Association based in Logan, Utah, is one such organization. It was founded in July 2007 and currently has 50 members.
