At the same time, the caregiver also gets some exercise while also getting to experience a new type of activity with their loved one.” Wallace believes that this program is the first of its kind in the world, and since its creation in June, has worked with several care homes and nonprofits. It’s even been endorsed and supported by AARP-Arizona. “Throughout my life, my grandmother has been tightly woven into the fiber of my being. I have always loved and respected my elders, and as a result, I think this work with seniors was a natural transition for me,” she says. “My initial intention was not necessarily to offer my music to just those living with dementia or cognitive impairment; but somehow, I found my way into that space, in addition to the active adult space, and fell in love with what music can provide to all of those who can benefit most.” Eventually, Wallace would love to see this program grow to be offered across the U.S. and to English-speaking countries across the globe.

organization helping to reduce food waste and improve the environment. If you’re searching for ways to get involved, these organizations can use your time, donations, or even gifts.

Colleen’s Dream Foundation Colleen’s Dream Foundation raises money for ovarian cancer research, funding research all over the country that supports early detection of ovarian cancer—the fifth leading cause of cancer deaths among women. Currently, there is no early detection test for ovarian cancer. The organization was founded in 2013 in honor of Colleen Drury, who passed away from ovarian cancer five years after she was diagnosed. Today Colleen’s daughter, Nicole Cundiff, serves as CEO and co-founder, along with her husband William “Billy” Cundiff, a former NFL kicker. “We knew that her time on Earth probably wouldn’t be long,” says Cundiff. “So she quit her job…to devote all of her time to helping us start the foundation. The goal was to make her the face of the organization. But sadly, she passed away before we could make that happen.” The foundation achieves its goals through fundraising, including events like golf tournaments and a Hawaiian luau. “She was so important to us,” says Cundiff, of her late mom. “And one of the things that was really devastating for her when she knew she was passing away was feeling like she hadn’t had enough time on Earth to really make an impact. She just really wanted to feel like her life mattered, and she made a difference. It was really important to give her that legacy.” ColleensDream.org

Arizona Helping Hands Founded in 1998, Arizona Helping Hands is the largest provider to children in the foster care system in the state of Arizona. Specifically, the nonprofit gives beds, cribs, clothing, diapers, back to school support, holiday toys, and birthday packages to children in need. It has provided 1,266 cribs and beds, and 834 kids with birthday packages that include a birthday message, three toys, and one book. With the exception of clothing, everything given to the children is brand new. “These children whose lives have been disrupted need normalcy, need safety, need comfort, need love, and a bed is a true representation of all of that. It’s so important to raise these children up because they truly our are future,” says Dan Shufelt, president and CEO of Arizona Helping Hands. To assist, you can purchase something from the organization’s Amazon Wish List, coordinate a diaper drive, or share a story on social media about the organization. AZHelpingHands.org

Gigi’s Playhouse provides free educational, social, and career development for children and adults with Down syndrome. It is an offshoot of a national company based in Chicago. The Scottsdale location opened in 2014, and serves more than 700 families. “Gigi’s is one-of-a-kind. There are no other programs like it that are specific to children and families with Down syndrome,” says Jennifer Gage, founder of GiGi’s Playhouse Phoenix. Programs offered include one-on-one literacy and math tutoring by trained volunteers, and helping to prepare adults with Down syndrome for meaningful employment. Gigi’s also helps families. A veteran mom will show up at the hospital with a new baby basket for a family to help them celebrate. Another program is for children ranging in age from newborns to age 3. It’s a story music hour where kids can play and parents can, in Gage’s words, “network.” “The moms end up making a connection,” says Gage. “This group goes on to be a really solid place for information and learning.” Gigi’s Playhouse temporarily closed back in March due to the pandemic, but thanks to grants, was renovated during that time. It re-opened in October, with a new playroom, fresh toys, new carpet, and new paint. GiGisPlayhouse.org/Phoenix

Scottsdale Lifestyle | November 2020

WHEN CAREY PEÑA LAUNCHED HER COMPANY, INSPIRED MEDIA 360, HER VISION WAS TO EXPAND OUTSIDE OF HER ROLE AS A TELEVISION NEWS REPORTER AND ANCHOR, AND CREATE MULTI-LAYERED DIGITAL CONTENT. “I also wanted to make more platforms for good to inspire others,” she says. Part of her journey has included purchasing a building in Phoenix and creating her own studio location. Her background, vision, and studio turned out to be fortuitous when COVID-19 hit. With nonprofits forced to cancel their usual in-person yearly fundraising events, Peña was ready to help them create a virtual option. “It all began with Phoenix Children’s Hospital,” she says. “I was the host of their in-person event, which had to be canceled as the pandemic approached. We turned their event into a virtual experience, and it was a big hit. “Next came Valleywise Health alongside my friend, Letitia Frye, and after that, the floodgate of possibilities cracked wide open. We are already booking virtual fundraising shows and hybrids into next year.” Peña’s specialty is creating TV shows and digital TV experiences.

“So, if an organization wishes to go virtual, I look at whether they seek a fully formed show. If so, I build a rundown and look at how to advance the storyline and reach new supporters and donors,” she explains. “It’s also essential to me that each show is unique. We build out custom sets and write, or take part in writing, all of the scripts to be TV-friendly. Sometimes I host the event myself, but I have also enjoyed playing the role of executive producer.” So far, Peña has also created virtual events for organizations ranging from Habitat For Humanity, Arizona Foundation for Women, and St. Jude, to HonorHealth, Phoenix Indian Center, and Amanda Hope Rainbow Angels. She’s also hosting the American Heart Association’s national awards from her Phoenix studio. Peña looks forward to helping organizations, in any way she can. “I’m a creative person, and I look at every production, project, and show as a blank slate. So, every day is new. It’s a bonus working alongside organizations that are making communities better on so many levels.” InspiredMedia360.com

BRANDON AND JALYNNE CRAWFORD ON GIVING BACK, FAMILY, CAREERS, AND WHAT THEY ARE MOST THANKFUL FOR

hitting a home run ARTICLE MICHELLE GLICKSMAN

PHOTOGRAPHY NIKKI RYAN PHOTOGRAPHY AND MCCALL MEDIA MANAGEMENT

Scottsdale Lifestyle | November 2020

BRANDON AND JALYNNE CRAWFORD HAVE CALLED ARIZONA HOME FOR ALMOST EIGHT YEARS. Brandon has spent the past nine seasons playing for the San Francisco Giants, while Jalynne co-owns and helps run Tiny Turnip. Together, they have four children. Here, they share there thoughts on their lives together. YOU BOTH WENT TO UCLA—IS THAT WHERE YOU MET? JALYNNE AND BRANDON CRAWFORD: We both attended UCLA in the fall of 2006 on scholarships for baseball (Brandon) and gymnastics (Jalynne). UCLA is where we met at the athlete orientation before school started. We were friends for a few months and couldn’t deny that we were more than that. We have been best friends ever since. JALYNNE, YOU HAVE BEEN BUSY WITH YOUR “CATCH A CURE” COLLABORATION. CAN YOU TELL US ABOUT IT? JC: The “Catch A Cure” collaboration was started when Rady’s Children’s Hospital came across Tiny Turnip on social media. Tiny Turnip is my company, along with my business partner/founder Rachel Luzi. They asked if we could create an artwork that raised money and awareness for pediatric cancer awareness month. It was an easy fit because pediatric cancer is near and dear to our hearts. I envisioned a Gold Glove catching a ball with the laces being the gold ribbons. We chose nine powerful words like Brave, Courage, and Hero because September is the ninth month, and there are nine players on a field. My partner is an artist and created it beautifully. One hundred percent of profits from the campaign are donated to pediatric cancer research. On the page you can find T-shirts, mugs, blankets, and a donate button to help. It has been amazing to see all the love and support we have received thus far. WHAT DRAWS YOU TO THIS MISSION? JC & BC: Pediatric cancer has personally affected us through close family and friends. Their stories, along with many others, inspired us to fight for these precious children and their families. WHY IS GIVING BACK IMPORTANT TO YOU? JC & BC: We are fortunate to be in a position to make an impact on people’s lives. Giving back is important to us because it helps us feel we are making a difference in our community. We also choose causes that have personal connections to us because it is so meaningful. BRANDON, HOW ARE YOU INVOLVED? BC: Along with getting other players from around the league to help spread awareness, I have used my social media platform to help the cause. I personally donated autographed memorabilia, and helped gather signed items from other players, for donations and prizes for giveaways to make the “Catch A Cure” collaboration fun. ARE YOU BOTH INVOLVED IN ANY OTHER CHARITABLE EFFORTS? JC & BC: We run a kids baseball camp (creatively called the Brandon Crawford Baseball Camp).

BIGGEST PERSONAL ACHIEVEMENT? JC & BC: Both of us agree on this one—our marriage and our children.

BIGGEST PROFESSIONAL ACHIEVEMENT? JC: Being a part of a company that not only instills a love of sports, but also has a mission to find creative ways to give back to the community. BC: Not only being able to live out my dream of playing baseball in the major leagues, but winning the World Series… twice! WHY DID YOU DECIDE TO MOVE TO SCOTTSDALE? BC: As a kid, I traveled from the Bay Area to Scottsdale annually with my dad to watch Giants spring training games. I always loved it. When I was drafted by the Giants, I had spring training in Scottsdale every year. The more Jalynne was out here, the more she liked it. We decided to buy a house here in early 2013, the year after my first full season in the big leagues. After living out here for a few years, we decided Scottsdale would be our forever home. WHAT DO YOU LOVE ABOUT THE AREA? ANY FAVORITE SPOTS AROUND TOWN? JC & BC: We love everything Scottsdale has to offer. There is so much to do for every age. The kids like to go to Butterfly Wonderland, the aquarium, the Phoenix Zoo, movie theaters, and parks. We love the variety of great restaurants, especially Butters Pancakes & Café, Blanco, and Preston’s Steakhouse. Brandon also likes the many different golf courses to choose from. THIS HOLIDAY SEASON, WHAT ARE YOU MOST THANKFUL ABOUT OR FOR? JC & BC: On holidays, being with both of our extended families is what’s most important to us. We enjoy the special time that we get with our nieces, nephews, and rest of our families.

WALKING THE WALK

A JOURNEY DOWN THE WINDING LIFE PATH OF UNASSUMING SPIRITUAL LEADER FRANCIS CHAN

IMAGINE YOURSELF AS THE LEADER OF A THRIVING MEGACHURCH IN VENTURA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, WITH MORE THAN 5,000 MEMBERS AND GROWING. You’re a New York Times bestseller making a million dollars in royalties from your first book and people love you—you’re on top of the world. Would you leave that all behind? Better yet, would you trade all of that, giving away 90% of your income to end up living in the poorest region of Hong Kong surrounded by people struggling to make it by on just 50 cents a day? For most, it probably sounds like a tale of riches to rags; an unfortunate and unwanted result of someone falling upon hard times. But for Francis Chan, a church planter and best-selling author who speaks to thousands of people around the world each year, it’s exactly what he did. And exactly what he needed—an opportunity to walk down a winding path that led him toward fulfilling his purpose; toward becoming a

man who can truly say he lives the life he’s been called to and encouraging others to do the same.

TREND SETTER (CONTINUED)

Watch the full interview @ CityLifestyle.com! Francis, born in San Francisco, was raised in a very traditional Chinese home and navigated a challenging upbringing. His mother died while giving birth to him. His father remarried, then his stepmother died in a car accident when he was 8. His father remarried again, then, when Francis was 12, died of cancer. Twenty-six and newly married, Francis and his wife Lisa founded Cornerstone Community Church in Simi Valley, California in the early 90s, beginning with a membership of 30 people. Within the first two months, the church grew to 100. By 2000, membership grew even more to 1,600. And by 2008, Cornerstone Community Church was one of the largest in Ventura County and Francis’ then-new book “Crazy Love” was a New York Times bestseller. Then, in 2010, Francis decided to leave it behind in pursuit of a more humble and impactful way of life. The $1 million his bestselling book made in the first year, plus the money it continues to make? Francis signed it all over to a charitable gift fund helping the poor and victims of human trafficking. After making the decision to leave Cornerstone and wrestling with what the next step would be, Francis and Lisa ended up selling their Simi Valley house and moving their family of six at the time overseas to India, Thailand and China, where he was able to embrace new interests and activities by doing what the locals do, and where he also saw an inspiring shift in culture and spiritual values. “I wish we could learn and see the sacrifice of others,” he says. “Their mentality really isn’t a consumer mindset of ‘Here’s my needs, here’s what I feel, no one cares about me— me, me, me, me. Overseas they’re just obsessed with each other and thinking about how to get to the poor—the truly poor—like ‘We’re going to starve today,’ or ‘We’re selling off kids today.’ That type of poor. There’s just a lot more urgency.” In the throes of a pandemic, quarrels over U.S. politics, a growing divide among people and beliefs, and the unsurety of life, Francis’ message of focus and fulfillment can be summed up simply: take your eyes off yourself.
