Karen Caruso named "Person of the Week"

August 29, 2011

Person of the Week last week. She was featured on the channel on Friday evening, with the focus being on hard work, positive affirmation and being able to achieve anything if you set your mind to it. What is “Person of the Week”? “Every Friday at 6pm, News 13’s Larry Blunt introduces viewers to “PERSON OF THE WEEK”. These are people in Western North Carolina with inspirational stories to tell. Its a great way to end the work week on an up note, going into the weekend with news of people who truly make a difference in our community.”

A fantastic accolade and more recognition for Karen and MYB.

Having received North Carolina Business Person of the Year in May, to be featured by the news channel in this way is a tribute to just how hard Karen and the team work to drive success.

Mind Your Business Inc. was conceived in 1996 in the basement of Karen’s home. Through an episode of ‘Opera’, Karen learned that it was incredibly difficult for parents to have background checks completed on prospective child-carers.  As a individual who worked in the security industry, Karen felt a duty to do her utmost to prevent this from happening again. With no college degree, a laptop, $2000 and an unyielding belief she conceived an organization whose origins are not based in financial gain or selfish ambitions, but altruism.

The desire to help people was what founded MYB and is the reason they continue to exist.

Such praise through the this News 13 feature is both humbling and inspirational, and we believe that there are still bigger and better things to come from MYB!]]>
