An entrepreneur and yogi who is eager to make a difference for his communities.
“As my youngest child finishes college, I’ve been thinking about an adult’s life stages. In the first, you’re working hard, making your way. In the second, you’re advancing, becoming part of a community, maybe raising children.
In the third stage, you find that when you’re serving others, you also serve yourself. You get satisfaction from seeing others heal themselves.
That’s why I started a fund at The Trust, which can help me make sure my giving makes a real difference.” — Carlos Lu
