This year’s grand marshals of the Saturday parade, the couple donate thousands of dollars each year to their community and are proud to have been able to help start Sherwood’s Relay For Life in 2005, the American Cancer Society’s signature fundraising event.

In 2007 they also started a Benefit Egg hunt, Egg Hunt For Hope, that raises money for a local Sherwood family affected by cancer. Last year they gave $60 to 26 participants (total of $1,560) and challenged them to grow that $60 into more money and to make a difference with it.

Their donation grew close to $20,000 and their “$60 McCabe Group Money Grow Challenge” was featured in the Feb. 6 issue of Woman’s World Magazine.

The proud parents of three boys, their business philosophy is “the more they sell, the more they give back to their community.” If you have ever met Todd and Leslie, you know that they live in a town they love, and are teaching their children that you can make a positive difference in others’ lives wherever you live by simply volunteering your time and “giving back” wherever and however you can.
