Young Men and a Partnership
Steven Rogers
"In the beginning I was curious, it was a unique idea, sounded fun and we were starting something new."
So, Steven Rogers and 20 young men, today in their mid-twenties, formed the Shade Partnership Fund. Late in their senior year at Wheaton College several members came up with a giving group idea as a catalyst for continuing friendships and doing something to impact the world.
