Service with a purpose. That is Philip Wilkerson III. Inspired by his military father and his doctor grandfather, Philip strives today to serve wherever and whenever he can. As a committee member for George Mason University's Pat's for Patriots program which allows students and faculty to nominate people for kindness recognition, Philip is regularly working to inspire and give kindness.

In this delightful conversation with Philp, Randy McNeely and Dr. Elia Gourgouris, you'll get to hear first hand how and why  Philip's father and grandfather stand out as kindness heros. You'll learn how their examples inspired Philip and continue to impact him today. You'll be inspired by the caring and kindness discussed.

Take a listen. You'll be glad you did.
