Donor Spotlight: Craig Stevens
April 30th, 2008 . by HollandAlthough Craig Stevens has only been to Fayetteville, Arkansas once, he was so impressed with some of the employees he met from Youth Bridge that he decided to make a contribution. Because Craig is such a college football fanatic, he thought the best way he could give back to Youth Bridge was by sending clients to Reynolds Razorback Stadium to experience a University of Arkansas football game. Clients regularly are able to attend games to root on the Razorbacks, and even get money to buy popcorn and souvenirs. Additionally, Craig has generously donated to our annual campaigns the last several years and continues to make an impact with the clients at Youth Bridge.
Craig is a partner in a CPA firm in Maryland. He is married to Belinda and has two wonderful children, Carter and Patrick. At one point in time, Craig worked briefly with Madison Guaranty S& L and has visited Little Rock a few times, however, Craig is not from Arkansas, nor did he know anyone previously from Arkansas. Youth Bridge is so privileged and proud to have a donor such as Craig Stevens. When we told Craig how much we appreciated his support his answer was simply, “Thank goodness there are programs like Youth Bridge.” He also says, “Don’t make fun of a youth for his odd behavior; he is only trying on one face after another to find his own.” What a wise man! We thank Craig from the bottom of our heart for his commitment and generosity.
