Most nonprofits begin with passion, and for good reason. A founder identifies a critical need and brings together a team that cares deeply enough to act. That kind of energy is what makes the early days possible. It drives long hours, resourceful problem-solving and a deep commitment to impact.

"This recognition is a testament to the talent, dedication, and 'can-do' spirit of the professional staff on the NYS Department of Transportation's team," Commissioner Dominguez said. "From bridge strikes in the capital region to catastrophic flooding in the Adirondacks, our team members work tirelessly to restore traffic and critical infrastructure-safely and quickly-with modern and resilient structures along these vital corridors within New York State."

We've had enough of politicians standing up and telling people what needs to happen in their area. It's time to listen to local people themselves. We're putting money behind local voices so they can choose for themselves how they put pride back in communities that felt ignored for so many years.

Understanding the difference in purpose Unlike private businesses, which exist to make a profit, public institutions are designed to create impact - especially social and economic outcomes that benefit everyone, not just paying customers. A public agency doesn't measure its success in revenue or margins, but in how much it improves lives, builds equity and maintains public trust. This doesn't mean budgets and spending don't matter - they absolutely do - but money is not the goal. It's the tool.

First Interstate Mortgage Co.'s income property division has arranged a $2.3-million construction loan and $2.6-million permanent loan for the rehabilitation of an existing three-story building in Pasadena, located at 95 N. Marengo St.

Cedar Street just came out victorious in a multi-year saga with the city of La Canada Flintridge, winning the first successful builder's remedy case in California Superior Court for its 80-unit mixed-use project at 600 Foothill Boulevard and setting a path for other developers to build. But the fight may have left its scars, in time, stress and now soured relationships with some officials.
