Lending a hand in my community.
Dennis has always believed in giving back to the community. Through the years, Dennis has volunteered his time and talents to a number of organizations. Here are some of the organizations we partner with:
Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation for Childhood Cancer (ALSF)
ALSF funds cancer research, raises awareness, and supports the families of children with cancer. Since 2012, Northwestern Mutual, its employees, and financial professionals like me have donated more than $20 million to support ALSF and fund over 400,000 research hours.

Greek Orthodox Manor
Dennis is a past President of the Board of Directors for Greek Orthodox Manor, a subsidized housing project for the elderly. Construction of the Greek Orthodox Manor was completed in 1984, and has since provided the elderly with a home that is safe, comfortable and affordable. During the time that Dennis was president, he successfully applied for and received federal CDBG grants that were used to provide much needed improvements to the Greek Orthodox Manor building. Over a million dollars was invested in these improvements. Dennis was dedicated to providing the residents of Greek Orthodox Manor the highest quality of living possible.
Milwaukee Christian Center
Currently, Dennis is serving as the President of the Board of Directors for the Milwaukee Christian Center. The Milwaukee Christian Center is an organization providing a number of programs to low income families and disadvantaged youth. Its focus is to help people escape poverty and become self-reliant.
How Northwestern Mutual helps you live the life you want.
When people feel better about their money, good things happen—they become more confident and feel more secure. For more than 160 years, Northwestern Mutual has helped people achieve the financial flexibility they need to live more and worry less.
Being a mutual company means Northwestern Mutual reports to its clients, not Wall Street. They don't believe in chasing fads or taking undue risk for short-term gains. Instead, they take a long-term approach—both in the way we help people plan to reach their goals, and in the way they do business. This has served their clients (and mine) well through all kinds of economic ups and downs, including wars, recessions, even the recent pandemic.
It's why I'm happy to be part of a company that's in it for the long-haul and prioritizes clients over profit.
