What is the value of ”Take Your Daughter to Work Day? We think it is education and empathy, so the child knows what the parent does daily, but it is so much more. It instills lifelong work values. Meahgan Gibson attended a “Take Your Daughter to Work Day” at Wyndham Hotels & Resorts. To this day she reminds me of a few choice words I stated during a staff meeting but she also pursued a career in Leisure and Hospitality. More importantly she picked up values like; everybody is critical to success (especially the lowest paid hourly associates), every person has a story, treat people with dignity and respect, and if they have a name tag, user their name. Grow by trying new things that others shy away from. Powerful words are “thank you” and “can you help me”, and assisting others even if you do not have time.  Today this was in my feed. I had no idea she was working on this.  Biscuits and socks, who knew? But more importantly, a young professional (from a generation many professionals belittle) leading a project that reflects well on the brand and does good for the community. Also hats off to Dennis Pfaff, Maple Street Biscuit Company and Cracker Barrel for creating an organization culture where young professional growth occurs. Take your daughter to work and as a leader, your relationships matter more than you know. #cio #leadership

Well done to everyone involved

Corporate organizations are in a position to dynamically impact their communities. Huge thank you to Lancaster County Motors, Inc. for their incredible support of Meals on Wheels of Lancaster and our community as a whole! While you might think that donating funds is the most important part of that impact, there are actually multiple ways corporate organizations truly transform the communities they are in. Here are a few examples: 1. Allow employees to volunteer. Some organizations actually pay employees to volunteer at least 8 hours a year. Others let employees take time off to support volunteering efforts. Some go so far as to coordinate the event and encourage all employees to participate. Find a way that works best for your organization. 2. Bring exposure to community partners. Social media posts and other marketing efforts harness your brand to support community impact. 3. Host community partners at your facility. If you have space, non-profits are often needing locations to host fundraising events and hold meetings. Your space can do good too! What ways are you using to impact your community? #corporateresponsibility #volunteering

This week, Phi Kappa Psi collaborated with the Hunters Fund, a foundation dedicated to supporting the interests of young people and raising awareness to end distracted/impaired driving. We thank all participants and supporters for their contributions to our cause. Throughout this week, we have successfully raised $7,860 and signed 1,616 pledge cards. Our campaign officially ends on December 31st. If you are interested in participating, please click the link below.                                                                         https://lnkd.in/giCEmvZZ                                                                       There are two ways to help support this cause. 1. Donations help our cause a lot; every donation goes back to Hunters Fund, an impeccable organization that eliminates this everyday habit. 2. Sign a pledge card. The cards include your name and the words, “I will end distracted and impaired driving.” The more pledges we get signed, the better for all of us! The more pledge cards we get signed physically or electronically, the more we will reduce distracted driving deaths.

This initiative to donate breakfast items to FareShare UK in partnership with Arla Foods UK is commendable and addresses a crucial need for vulnerable and disadvantaged populations. However, it's important to critically examine the impact of such donations in the broader context of addressing food insecurity. While immediate relief is provided, long-term solutions to systemic issues of poverty and inequality should also be considered. Additionally, assessing the sustainability and scalability of such partnerships is essential to ensure lasting impact beyond the immediate donation.

I love people that do cool sh*t, especially when it’s not just a money making idea! Check out my friend's new nonprofit, After Party! After Party repurposes wedding & event florals to bring joy to shelters, hospitals, hospice, & more. Let's help reduce waste & spread love! If you have any vases or containers to donate, please reach out to Nora McCormack! Here's to supporting this amazing initiative! 🌺💐🥀🪻🪷🌹🌸 ********************************** “HI FRIENDS! I don't think I've mentioned it here yet, but for the next phase of my ongoing midlife crisis, I have started a nonprofit! World, meet After Party! After Party is a 501c3 that repurposes wedding & event florals to be enjoyed at shelters, hospitals, hospice, & other like organizations. You know where all of those flowers end up after weddings? In the trash. After 17 years in the wedding industry, I've become tired of seeing that amount of waste so I figured I'd try to do something about it! Inquiries have been coming in pretty consistently, which is promising! With that, I am asking for vase/vessel donations so that I can keep costs down. Jars (clean spaghetti sauce jars, pickle, mason, any & all!), old vases, & glass containers that can be used as bedside vases would be SO wonderful! If you are able to collect, I would be happy to pick up! Other items that I will gladly accept: 5 gallon buckets, milk crates, glass racks, & plastic totes. The website is still under construction, but if you felt compelled to donate (tax deductible donations! Huzzah!), please follow the link below. https://lnkd.in/eZc5wA6C Thank you for supporting this next leg of my ongoing psychological break-- I hope it's as successful as the last one! 🤣🥾🏕”

Crisis, such as the tragic fires in and around Ruidoso, reveal the character of people and businesses. Such as the extreme leadership of MATI’s Godfrey Enjady working tirelessly with friends, such as PVT’s James Meyers, to restore vital communications within and outside of their own service areas. Or the local businesses working together to meet the needs of those impacted. Local businesses matter and will be there when needed. I so appreciate the efforts of PVT’s employees organizing this effort to bring supplies to those in need. Chris & Tabitha Davis , Cassie Florez , Daniel Rodriguez, SHRM-CP and Ross Horner.
