KIDS AND DOGS? NAME A BETTER PAIR.

With a mission to “nourish your pet while giving back to the community,” Brutus Broth has built our foundation on philanthropy. We formed the Kids Committee to teach tomorrow’s leaders about entrepreneurship and philanthropy.

NEVER TOO YOUNG FOR ENTREPRENEURSHIP

As busy moms who launched a business while balancing home life, we saw a need to teach our kids that starting a business is not that easy. You can have a great idea but sometimes there is a lot of problem solving that needs to take place for that idea to come to life.  We have a monthly newsletter that teaches kids how we have been able to overcome obstacles and teaches them some valuable life lessons (cheaper is not always better!). We also want to create an open (but controlled!) forum for ideas. The best example of this was the packaging that some members helped design for two new product launches.

  • PATIENCE & TENACITY

    The Kids Committee learns all about the ups & downs of operating a small business and the need to problem solve and pivot at a moment’s notice. They also learn about philanthropy and that it is an ongoing endeavor and not just a one-time act.

  • RESEARCH SKILLS

    You need to make sure you properly research and vet those organizations that you support so that you ensure your donations go towards what the charity says it will

  • TIME & FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT

    Title

    You need to prioritize and manage your funds. You cannot give more than you have!

  • NEGOTIATION SKILLS

    Make a case as to why you choose to give to one charity and not another. Why is the charity that you are voting for better than another member’s charity?
