Our January Taco King is Here! – Rasta Taco Blog, January 2nd, 2016

Community is everything these days and we are forever indebted to the people that lead our local communities to greatness. So this month Rasta Taco would like to name Shawn Wehan as the first Taco King of 2016!

Born and raised in Dana Point, Shawn Wehan has always had a sense of pride in his community. Volunteering with non-profit’s since he was in college, Shawn is now trying to make a difference in more ways than one with 2 different amazing organizations that he’s founded, FLOC and Givsum.

OC Register – November 10th, 2015

Fresh out of college, Shawn Wehan’s desire was to become a Jesuit priest.

Fast-forward 15 years. He’s the CEO of an Irvine-based tech company, Givsum.

“It’s crazy,” said the 40-year-old Dana Point resident. “There’s no question my life has taken several surprising turns. But my heart is still very much in the same place.”

Wehan started Givsum in 2013 as a one-stop source for volunteers, nonprofit organizations and corporations. The online platform allows individuals to conveniently track and promote their philanthropic interests and at the same time provides charities with an effective tool for raising awareness and funds, he said.

Wehan said he got the idea for Givsum when he started a group called Future Leaders of Our Community (FLOC), whose purpose is to match young professionals with local nonprofits.

Shawn Wehan was talking with a friend about the huge gap between the for-profit business world and the nonprofit sector. Young professionals who were looking to get involved in the community had no idea where to start.
