I'm a Renaissance man trapped in a specialist's body. I started as a biologist. That's why I became an IT guy. I love science, but it doesn't pay the bills. I've been an IT professional for many years. I was a software developer with an elegant language for a more civilized age. I became a Quality Assurance Analyst because it's better to give than receive. I have been a process improvement specialist because it's easier to negotiate with a terrorist than a Methodologist. I've worked as a Scrum Master and Agile Coach. I have drunk the Kool-Aid, and it tastes good. I'm currently focusing on writing and speaking. Agile is a philosophy, not a methodology. In interviews, people ask how long have you been Agile. My answer is always. I didn't know what to call it before.

Justin Godur lives by the belief that generosity is a daily act, one measured not only in financial gifts but in the willingness to show up, give time, and put in hard work. He builds, provides, and participates fully, and this commitment shows in his philanthropy and volunteer efforts. His philosophy is rooted in the idea that people and animals deserve dignity, and his life is a reflection of that conviction in action.

Behind his giving is a simple principle: people matter. Communities thrive when supported, so he builds and invests to keep hope alive. He believes that if you can change someone’s outcome, even a little, you must do it. This guiding value is what drives him daily and sustains his long-term vision to keep showing up where he’s most needed.

When Hurricane Dorian devastated the Bahamas in 2019, Justin didn’t just write a check. He organized a mission trip, led a team to deliver food and supplies, rebuilt torn-down neighborhoods, and provided housing for displaced families. He also rescued abandoned animals and created systems to sustain their care long after the crisis faded. That mission clarified his life’s purpose: to help others rebuild, recover, and endure.

His approach to giving is practical and far-reaching, ensuring that resources meet immediate needs such as food, housing, clothing, and healthcare. Through his private lending consulting work, Justin uses investing as a tool for social good. For him, a business deal is more than numbers; it can ensure a student stays enrolled, a clinic remains open, or a family keeps its home. Each transaction is an opportunity to multiply impact.

Justin’s love for animals is just as profound. He has saved thousands through rescues and continuous support of shelters like Abandoned Pet Rescue. His creation of a dedicated dog park transformed lives by giving dogs freedom, play, and visibility, allowing adopters to see their real personalities. For him, it’s infrastructure designed for joy and healing rather than confinement and stress.

His philanthropy spans hunger relief, children’s health, disaster recovery, veterans’ services, education, medical research, housing, and wildlife protection. He has partnered with organizations such as Feeding America, St. Jude, United Way, UNICEF, World Vision, Habitat for Humanity, and dozens more, always seeking to meet real needs with practical solutions.

Beyond philanthropy, Justin Godur Goudry mentors young people who feel like they have little to start with. He offers knowledge, encouragement, and opportunities, guiding them to believe in their potential. His greatest reward is witnessing lives transformed—graduates, entrepreneurs, and new leaders carrying the torch of generosity forward.
