I try never to refuse anything related to fundraising for foundations, organizations that
benefit our service personnel, children's causes, retired people, combating illness,
or anything of a spiritual nature. That's my first priority. ~Daniel

Waukesha WI, "Patriotism, Pride and Character" conference
A highlight of the conference came at the very end, when the program promised an unspecified "special surprise." Appearance and performance by "America's Beloved Tenor," Daniel Rodriguez, a New York police officer and accomplished singer who rose to prominence after the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. Rodriguez spoke briefly on his singing career, saying that he had always tried to follow his passion throughout life, but that life isn't a straight line. He closed out the "Patriotism, Pride and Character" conference with "Proud to be an American" and "God Bless America," also taking questions about the future of his performing career and plans to sing at benefits to provide accommodations for disabled veterans. Rodriguez earned a standing ovation from the crowd, with some members commenting that they had returned to the Jefferson-led conference year after year and always came away with new ideas and inspiration.

A portion of CD titled "I Believe" go to benefit "Hart voor Kinderen."
"A portion of proceeds go to making a home and family environment for orphans in South Africa. During the concert series we gave CD's to those who signed up to support "Heart for Children" and we were successful. The support we received from patrons at the concerts will make it possible to build 3 houses in South Africa that will house up to 6 orphans and a matron each. The matron will be the care giver and the organization will be a partner in the development and education of the orphans and, with Gods help, they will grow to become a new generation of educated leaders in a land that holds many of our worlds treasures. ~Daniel
