Schneider Development goes Beyond Boobs!
Community involvement is an important goal of ours. Giving back, with both money and time, makes our community a better place to live and work in. The staff at Schneider Development have diverse interests. Chris Schwab, our Business Development Director, is one of four women who have opened the Southside chapter of Beyond Boobs!, Inc. She’s also on the Board of Directors. (She’s become quite patient with the “boob jokes” from her construction-industry co-workers.)
Beyond Boobs! Inc. is a non-profit organization focused on breast health that began in Williamsburg. Co-founders, Mary Beth Gibson and Rene Bowditch, are breast cancer survivors who initially came together to support and encourage one another. Their vision is to take Beyond Boobs! nationwide, so women everywhere will know the life-saving importance of early detection, and so other young survivors can experience the benefits the group gained by traveling this “journey” together.
- Beyond Boobs at the Neptune Festival
So far this year, we’ve participated in the Neptune Festival Parade and the Pink Heels Tour at Mt. Trashmore. Our next invitation is for a fantastic event this Saturday 11/7: Divas in Disguise. The annual Fashion Show and Silent Auction is presented by The Hague Center for Cosmetic & Plastic Surgery and will benefit Beyond Boobs! Contact Chris for tickets 757.339.9706 or here.
