The CK Daily – CK Giving, Path United
Happy Thursday!
In 2021, we were introduced to Path United by through a non-profit wish book for charities in our area. We were interested in getting involved with them because their work is relatable to Craig’s experience growing up. They ” work with community leaders, churches, and local schools to transform mobile home communities through showing children God’s love while building positive relationships and empowering them socially and emotionally.” Craig was raised by a single mom, lived most of his childhood in a mobile home park, and quit school at age 15 to work full time. Now he’s our CEO! He’s lived similar experiences to many of the kids in the Path United program, so he can connect with them in ways other adults may not be able. His outlook on life, stories of adventures, and tales from his many entrepreneurial experiences have been inspiring to the kids in the program.
The Path United staff is wonderful; they care deeply for the children and run great programs. Craig and I have had the opportunity to visit a few of their sites, and Craig has been able to share his story in one mobile home park so far. The kids really connected with his experiences, and they loved seeing the flashy red car that he brought along for show and tell. We have plans in January and February to share with two more sites.
I would encourage you to find a way to use your life experiences to positively impact the lives of those around you!
Thank you for letting me share these organizations with you this week! We hope to have lots more to share throughout this year. I hope your 2023 is off to a great start and look forward to writing to you all again soon!

Learning Center Article – Understanding Wavelengths
No one ever accused fiber optics of being simple technology. Instead, we tend to acknowledge that this powerful technology is difficult to design and complicated in its application. Mastering those complications is often worth it because it enables us to build better networks and do a better job with those networks. In that endeavor, we can tackle a brief tutorial on wavelengths and how they impact fiber optic designs.
