Phillip's passions include education, the environment, dogs, and what he would describe as "making the world a little better and a little more fair for everyone." In addition to being a founding sponsor of School Aid, International, and sponsoring a Head Start class for more than 18 years, Phillip has also volunteered for Junior Achievement, bringing a businessman's perspective to middle school students.  He is a lifetime member of the Sierra Club and belongs to the Tennessee Environmental Council, Tennessee Greenways, Nashville Greenways, and the World Wildlife Organization.  Phillip sponsors "Rover" a free neutering/spaying program though the ASPCA and visits them whenever they are nearby providing services to needy pet owners in the area.

One of his most recent projects has been to assist in the rebuilding/renewal of New Orleans through Habitat for Humanity.  Along with a busload of volunteers Phillip worked on two homes being built in the "Backatown" area of New Orleans. Phillip says "It was a great experience, and two families will have decent, affordable housing that never would have been available to them. The Habitat for Humanity organization does a great job, and this kind of effort will change lives. It is an honor to participate."

One of Phillip's favorite local organizations is Galaxy Star Drug Awareness whose mission is to engage our youth and young adults in positive learning experiences that will allow them to create non-violent choices, with the hopes of breaking generational, socioeconomic, and environmental barriers to success. The Galaxy Star/Peacemakers Pledge says it all:
