(PRWEB) June 10, 2005 -- Every non-profit and service organization needs a
way to say thank you to the incredible people who generously give their time and
donations to support these groups. Once you given out the pins, coffee mugs and
certificates, it is often hard to find the ideal gift that carries the right
message.
Arlene Stepputat has written a book that has that perfect
message. It is The Caring Heart, and this small, beautifully illustrated color
hardback book has already been used by many groups around the country to say
those two important words: thank you.
“When I saw The Caring Heart at a
local charity event,” says Gail Tylor, director of JobSmart, a non-profit that
provides clothing for low income and homeless people actively seeking
employment, “I knew it would be perfect to give to our dedicated volunteers for
National Volunteer Week last April. Everyone was thrilled with the books. Not
only the book beautiful, but it has a truly inspirational
message.”
Arlene has been involved in non-profit organizations since she
was in high school. Now the president of Integrity International, a management
and consulting company, as well as the author of The Caring Heart, she helps
non-profit organizations in making the best use of their volunteers. “The
response to the book has been amazing,” Arlene points out. “We’ve had retirement
communities giving it to all their nurses in honor of National Nurse Week; a
large medical center in the Midwest gave out 500 copies to all their volunteers
to celebrate their 45th anniversary, and parents have donated to school
libraries because it moved them so much. I’m very pleased that people understand
its message about the importance of helping others in order to make ourselves
whole.”
