Most people in the service industry are driven by a heartfelt desire to give back. Sister EdithRoese embodies this spirit, having started her journey by doing accounting for her parents’ businesses. While this may not seem like working in a soup kitchen or building housing for people experiencing homelessness, her dedication to learning and using her skills to help others is a form of charity.
As an accountant, Sister Edith upheld the highest standards, taking pride in her ability to manage multi-million dollar contracts and oversee the financials of large corporations with absolute integrity. Her work gave her employers a sense of security, knowing they could trust her completely.
Now that she has retired, Sister EdithRoese is in a position to do even more. The increasing pain and needs of the world have inspired her to expand her efforts. With the advent of the internet and social media, the potential to support charities and make a real difference has never been greater. Thus, Sister Edith’s dream of The Living Treasures Collective has become a reality.
