Gems & Java 2023 Sponsor Spotlight: Green Private Wealth
We can’t thank our Presenting Sponsor for Gems & Java 2023, Green Private Wealth, enough!
Green Private Wealth and its founder, Paul Green, have supported Gems & Java since it began 12 years ago. This company continues to donate to our efforts throughout the year and provides this top-tier sponsorship at Gems & Java.
Green Private Wealth, a wealth management firm with offices in Burlington and Woodstock, is a business that gives back.
They even have a charitable program called Share the Green, which has supported Mothers with a Heart for Ethiopia throughout the years, including through very generous donations and sponsorships that have allowed our organization to raise tens of thousands of additional dollars.
Most recently Green Private Wealth donated $20,000 to launch a powerful matching campaign.
Paul Green says his “greatest joy comes from helping children in need,” and we have seen that passion in action many times through the firm’s support.
Thank you so much Green Private Wealth for your longtime, loyal sponsorship!!
Paul Green
