I had the opportunity of meeting of Raul
and asking him a few questions on
why philanthropy is so important to him.
What initially inspired you to get involved
in charity and philanthropy?
I have always had a heart for others since
I was 5 years old. My instincts as a human
being began at that time and I had a heart
for people and animals. I remember my
grandfather asked me, “who is the most
important person,” and I said HE is,
of course, or my mother. He told me he
would be back after I could think about
it a while. When he returned I told him that
“I” am the most important person, and
he kissed me and said that is right.
Were you raised to think about others or
was there an event in your life that caused
you to direct your interests toward charity?
At 7 years my grandfather told me that
I have too many shoes – don’t you know
there are people that don’t have one pair?
A maid worked in the house and her son
had holes in his shoes – I gave him 3 pairs
of my shoes.
What do you get out of helping others and
being a part of such a cause?.
It makes me feel important to others and to
myself and that I accomplish something
contributing to something important.
Why would you recommend others
others to get involved?
The rewards of helping others should be spread
around and giving something back to the world
in a noble way – it is a unique experience
for humanity.
What would you like to see change
about the world?
Everything needs to change in the world
starting from the respect of wild life and
mankind as well as the respect for enviroment
around the world
What would you do to fix the issues?
In order to make significant changes we all
need to start from our own house and
teach others to do the same.
You are involved with a lot of charities..
What are the ones you are most passionate
about and why?
I support FlauntMyPet, The Humane Society,
the Make-A-Wish Foundation, Hollywood
of the Indigenous.The foundation
Children’s Hospital, and the Senior
Citizen Foundation because they are all
dedicated to supporting mankind as well
as animals and survival into the future
