Do Something Good Day

Today is the birthday of a close friend from my Villanova b-school days, Jaron Taaffe, who passed away unexpectedly at the age of 28 in 2007, shortly after becoming engaged. He had been instrumental in developing the concept of Symmetry Capital, and was almost a founding co-partner. At Jaron’s memorial service, his older brother Damon asked us all to make December seventh ‘do something good day’ (an article that Damon wrote about his brother in 2009 is available here). To honor Jaron, we try to do some good today and every day, and encourage others to do the same.

Wherever there is a human being, there is an opportunity for a kindness. 

Seneca, Roman Philosopher

RIP, friend.
