Anam Consulting: Paying It Forward

True to our Midwestern roots, we are big believers in Paying It Forward, be it with partners or partner organziations. Several of our current / recent activities include:

Lumen Christi Employment Network

Patrick is the founder and moderator of the Lumen Christi Employment Network, a job-search support program that has helped over 1,000 professionals in SE Wisconsin into new positions.

In addition, Patrick co-founded and moderated the Building Bridges for Veterans’ Employment program (2010 – 2012), a focused effort to assist returning Veterans to find appropriate employment in the private sector.

Rotary Club of Milwaukee

Patrick is a long-time member of the Rotary Club of Milwaukee, one of the oldest and largest Clubs in the United States. Thru this membership, Patrick has both led and supported some important initiatives:

  • The Club has funded major infrastructure projects in Guatemala for the past 13 years. Patrick has been responsible for bringing Rotary Clubs throughout the State of Wisconsin in as co-funders, enabling the construction of water distribution systems and both pedestrian and vehicular bridges.
  • By partnering with the Ukrainian Medical Association of North America (UMANA), the Club has helped to collect / sort / pack / ship more than 100 tons of donated medical supplies for delivery to Ukraine.  Patrick has been managing the PPE teams.
  • Also thru UMANA, and with our newest partners in the Be an Angel relief organziation, the Club led an initiative to raise more than $125,000 to purchase almost 200 portable generators for Ukraine. Patrick led the effort to bring over 35 Rotary Clubs throughout Wisconsin and the Upper Peninsula of Michigan in to co-fund this critical program.
