Senator John McCain Presents Presidential Award to Mr. Len Kaine

Senator John McCain pins the "President's Life Time Achievement Award for Volunteer Service" on Len Kaine , President of the Golden Rule Society

The award was presented during the 50th Anniversary of the US Navy's Carrier Combat Pilot's Association in Reno Nevada (September 2006).  Senator McCain was the guest speaker for over 3,350 attendees at this annual convention.

The Focus is on the Children.

The GRS philosophy says it all,

“To better the lives of others is your life's greatest reward.”  

 

A commendable aspect to the GRS business model is that 100% of the funds raised by the organization help children and non-profit beneficiaries.   In fact, in the three decades since the GRS began more than one million young lives are estimated to have been touched and improved by the very generous outreach programs offered by the GRS.

    Len and Anne Kaine

    Len and Anne Kaine
Anne has spent a lifetime helping others, from her early days as a volunteer church organist to her current volunteer positions. She is the Vice President and co-founder of the Golden Rule Society (GRS) charity. Beginning in 1972, she has assisted in directing the GRS efforts to help children in all 50 states and more than 15 other countries. Anne, like all senior staff and advisors, is a non-paid volunteer.

In addition to her recent nomination for the for the L’Oreal Corporation’s “Worldwide Woman of Worth Award”, Anne has been the proverbial “mover and shaker” in GRS. She has taken center stage as one of the tacticians and innovators and is widely recognized for her many efforts in GRS's extraordinarily successful achievements which benefit children, churches and charities, nationwide and worldwide.

Along with her other services, she has been an active volunteer with the Children’s Home Society of California for more than 35 years, helping children throughout the state. 

And if that wasn’t enough selfless service to others, for more than six years she has been deeply involved in the worldwide sisterhood “Philanthropic Educational Organization” (PEO) as they help young women to further their education.

Plus, she’s a manager of Coronado's Episcopal Church Thrift Shop helping to raise money for the needy, and assists in conducting the responsibilities of the church’s Altar Guild as well. 

Len readily admits that without Anne, the many accolades and awards which recognized the numerous achievements of GRS would not have been possible. 
The old adage, “behind every successful man is a wonderful and supportive woman,” is very true in Len’s case. The many accomplishments Len and GRS have been associated with are possible in great part due to the support, and the dedication of his wife Anne, the love of his life for more than five-decades.

Len and Anne, along with their Advisors and volunteers are helping multi-thousands to be more successful in life.

Enjoy your visit and learn how you can benefit from their efforts, just as children, churches, charities plus so many others are benefiting from their charitable work. 

GRS provides top-notch opportunities for you and others to be more successful in life. With these opportunities comes great personal support - a combination that can't be beat! 

As Len says, "Do business with someone you know, like and trust". His many friends and business associates all agree, Len Kaine is that person.  Through his commitment, experience, and expertise Len has established business and charitable relationships with successful people that will last a lifetime!
