Kindness Contributors

Samaritan’s club is a true blessing to me, not only because I have witnessed the club doing good things, but because I know that these experiences will have a lasting effect on who these children grow up to be.

Throughout her career, she has witnessed the profound changes that result from self discovery and exploration and believes it is critical to instill this practice into our children. She is a community organizer and visionary dedicated to the development and growth of the Samaritans365 program. Her contributions include establishing contacts within the community, developing measurable goals and policies, marketing, communications, and fiscal projections. She is a mother of two small children, and has helped to raise two step-children from early childhood up through college. She is incredibly passionate about bringing her experience into the community and giving children the opportunity to see how their personal growth and contributions can directly affect others and help to eliminate suffering from our world. Jennifer received her Bachelor of Social Work from Florida Atlantic University in 2008.

I have volunteered and participated with many events for Special Olympics, and was on the original construction and organizing committee for  building the Betty Straddling Park in Coral Springs, Florida. I truly believe in the beauty that ”giving is better than receiving” and even got my children involved in the movement.   Samaritans365 aligns with my inner soul. I have helped create the Kindness Movement and I am labeled the ”Kindness Dealer”. I am a Super Samaritan, Kindness Dealer and eager to learn and grow with the foundation.

As part of the legacy of the untimely death of my husband, Salvador Susi, who was a genuine family man, friend and honest person I have started the “Salvador Susi Samaritans365 Scholarship Fund”. This scholarship was created by our family and friends to continue Sal’s sincere belief that kindness truly matters. His belief was that only through youth can we strive to achieve kindness and basic goodness. Therefore, the scholarship money will be used to fund a wish list formed by schools to meet their needs. These needs may include starting a Samaritans365 club, supplies for students, educational books, computers, meals, supplies etc. for the students.

Businesses, families and friends can get on board to spread KINDNESS MATTERS by donating to Samaritans365 Salvador Susi Scholarship Fund.

In 1988, Ms. Hampton entered the non-profit sector serving as Director of Development for the Easter Seal Center in Peoria, Illinois where she managed the production of over 30 annual fundraising events including the Easter Seal Telethon. Ms. Hampton’s expertise was then sought by a group of civic leaders charged with creating a year-long series of events to commemorate the 300th anniversary of European settlement. As Executive Director of the Peoria 1691 Foundation, Ms. Hampton created a calendar of nearly 100 community events; a local, state, and national publicity campaign; innumerable educational seminars, and, personally raised $300,000 cash and over $800,000 in donations-in-kind in under 12 months in this community of 120,000.

In 1993, Ms. Hampton formed Highview Communications. She has served as Executive Coach to a long list of business owners from a diverse array of industries, including sales, advertising, banking, real estate, health care, conference planning, veterinary medicine, etc. She has empowered them to create a vision for their business, design and implement a plan for its achievement, and effectively manage and mentor their staffs.

He received his 200 hour Yoga Teacher Certification through at The Barkan Method of Fort Lauderdale in 2011 and strengthened his knowledge with their Level II/III teacher training and is currently a registered and insured 500 hour RYT through Yoga Alliance. Blessed to have been able to continue his yoga education but realizing that so many of his yoga teacher friends, students and colleagues found it difficult to afford quality yoga training and education, he felt compelled to create a forward thinking scholarship program. The NamaStacy Yoga Corporation®, a recognized 501(c)(3) non-profit, was created to support yoga teachers and students with continual learning and development in the yoga of their choice. Corbin is passionate about helping others reach their full potential and deeply committed to “paying it forward, one yogi at a time.”

Corbin has made Fort Lauderdale his home and is currently in the process of launching his own Hot Yoga studio.

If you’re looking for a fiery and fierce Vinyasa class, find Corbin at many of South Florida’s most successful studios and see how NamaStacy Yoga Corporation® continues to keep “paying it forward, one yogi at a time”.

The sense of purpose that is developed, as well as contribution to the greater good is a gift that keeps on giving. Uniting with the efforts of Samaritans365 is a match made in heaven. Kindness is one of the few things that multiplies when it is given away!

I am honored every single time I am able to capture the beautiful moments of children realizing the incredible feeling of what it is like to spread Kindness to others and give back to their community in even seemingly simple ways. Being able to document the beginnings of this wonderful movement  and the spread of Kindness throughout these incredibly challenging times brings a warmth and smile to my soul.
