For companies like Josef Rettman, Bacardi Limited, and COJE Management Group we continue to answer the call.
Through Shepherd Strategies’ dedication to nonprofit support and pro bono efforts, the team has worked hand in hand with the Dream Center of Indianapolis to secure state funding to support the ongoing survival of single mothers and former foster youth in Indiana.
