This morning, as I started my infusions at the hospital (a journey that will continue for the next four weeks). As the nurse was getting my IV started, something caught my eye – the cart they were using had a WBENC certified business logo. It made me smile to see this symbol of diversity right there in front of me. I love supporting diverse-owned businesses, and it’s incredibly uplifting to see more and more women-owned, minority-owned and LGBTQ+ suppliers making their mark in big places. It’s a reminder that our choices matter and that diversity and inclusion are making tangible impacts in our everyday lives. Seeing this today has given me a boost of positivity, and I hope it does the same for you. Let’s continue to support and celebrate diverse suppliers in all sectors! #Diversity #Inclusion #SupportDiverseBusinesses #WomenOwned #MinorityOwned #LGBTOwned #SupplierDiversity #PositiveImpact #Procurement #SupplyChain #InclusiveProcurement #DiverseSuppliers #SustainableProcurement #StrategicSourcing #ProcurementExcellence #SupplyManagement #EthicalProcurement #ProcurementStrategy

Diversity should be everywhere and important to everyone (IMO) - love that you found this uplifting “note” as you began your treatment. Prayers for total healing.
