What if rounding up your restaurant bill by a few cents could help feed a hungry child, support a local nonprofit, AND help keep a local restaurant in business? That's the idea behind the new Shared Table Fund, and it just might be a game changer for Anne Arundel County! We caught up with Monica Alvarado, owner of Bread and Butter Kitchen and the driving force behind the wildly successful Feed Anne Arundel initiative during COVID, to talk about her newest effort to tackle food insecurity. It's not meant to be profitable for the restaurant. It's not meant to do anything other than help offset those costs so that restaurants can continue to say yes. The concept is simple. Local restaurants invite customers to round up their checks, with the money going into a fund managed by the Community Foundation of Anne Arundel County. Nonprofits can then apply for funding to purchase meals from participating restaurants. Hungry people get fed, nonprofits get help, and restaurants can continue giving back without shouldering all the costs. Monica is looking for MORE RESTAURANTS to get involved, and she'll even help them get set up! And you don't have to own a restaurant to help. Individual donations are always welcome, too.

Sometimes, the biggest obstacle to rebuilding your life is simply getting where you need to go. That's the idea behind Recover E-Bikes, a Glen Burnie nonprofit providing free electric bicycles to people recovering from addiction. This week, we caught up with Chris and Alex Kauffmann outside Ann's Dari Creme to learn how their program is helping people get to work, treatment, recovery meetings, and everyday appointments. The nonprofit already has 20 e-bikes on the road and more than 340 applications. The bikes remain with the nonprofit and are passed along to another participant when they're no longer needed. Chris and Alex hope to expand the program throughout Maryland. What we offer people is a lot more than just a second chance. We give them a structure. We give them an opportunity for them to achieve their goals. And then in turn, they can show other people how to do the same thing. We talked about their personal recovery journeys, the challenges of transportation in Anne Arundel County, and how the community can help through donations and bike sponsorships. It's a great idea that's already changing lives. Have a listen! LINKS: Recover-E Bikes (Website) Recover-E Bikes (Facebook)

Pat Rain knows what it feels like to be in transition. After more than 30 years in corporate leadership, a move back to Maryland, divorce, cancer, and eventually leaving the corporate world behind, she launched Day 2 to help women figure out what comes next when life changes course. You can't change the past, but you can change the next steps you take after that. --Pat Rain, Day 2 In this week's Local Business Spotlight, Pat talks about her role as a "transition architect" and the difference between coaching and therapy. Day 2 is focused on moving forward — helping women identify where they are stuck, whether they are drifting, swirling, or searching, and then building a practical plan with measurable goals, accountability, and plenty of encouragement along the way. The work can apply to divorce, retirement, layoffs, empty nesting, career changes, or simply reaching a point where someone knows they want something different but has no idea how to get there. Pat also discusses why there is no magic fix. Clients have to be ready to own the plan and do the work, while Day 2 helps break bigger changes into smaller, manageable steps. She also shares details about her free Annapolis gatherings for women 60 and older and why connection, conversation, and simply being heard can be an important part of navigating a new stage of life.
