“Be the change, you wish to see in the world”  Ghandi

It is our mission to remain active in the community and support many local and global causes. We believe that we achieve success only by helping those around us succeed, whether it be overcoming an illness, overcoming poverty, or fighting to end hunger.

It is our goal to bring awareness to these causes and support their missions through both time and monetary commitments. It is our hope that we will inspire our “community” to do the same!

Have a cause you want us to promote? Contact us today at threepeasservices@gmail.com.

Whether they suffer from common childhood afflictions like asthma and broken bones, or fight bigger challenges like birth defects or cancer, Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals provide comfort, treatment and hope to millions of sick kids.
