The event, held at Brunswick Bowling Lanes in Roswell was a surprising treat for the kids, most of who come from disadvantaged backgrounds. The “Potter’s House” is a refuge for young boys, mostly between the ages of 5 and 14. Casey and Rob Cunningham, co-founders of XINNIX, have always dreamed of opening a foster home for children, a non-profit organization called the XINNIX Ranch. Currently, XINNIX donates a portion of its gross revenue to The XINNIX Ranch. That money, combined with donations from generous corporate partners and alumni, should allow The Cunningham’s to open the home to approximately 100 foster children within the next 5 years. While the ranch is still in its early stages of development, The Cunningham’s wanted to touch the lives of underprivileged children now. XINNIX President Casey Cunningham said, “Our philanthropic events continue to fuel our desire to get our ranch open and gives us a chance to share with others now, while we are still building the plans for the XINNIX Ranch. The “Potter’s House” is one of 85 foster homes in Metro Atlanta supported by the Children’s Restoration Network (CRN), a non-profit agency that raises money for homeless children and their mothers. XINNIX offers training courses, products, and services in hopes of raising the standards in the mortgage industry, as well as changing the lives of their students, both personally and professionally.
