Ed Robertson accepted the 2024 Local Food System Partner Award on behalf of the team at Mercer University Culinary Group at our recent Farmer Town Hall. His leadership has been instrumental in advancing their forward commitment program, advocating for the program among his peers, and partnering with us on a local school backpack donation for the past two years. The award was presented by Alexis Edwards of R&G Farms (Dublin, Georgia), a farm to which Ed's team at Mercer made a forward commitment. Congratulations, Mercer U! We look forward to what's to come! #FarmtoInstitution #ValuesBasedPurchasing #localfarms #localfoodsystems #PartnershipsThatWork Aramark Collegiate Hospitality I Katelyn Repash I Bill Green

Dressed or not? That is the question… A po’boy can be plain - just French bread and your choice of protein. OR You can get it “dressed” with lettuce, mayo, tomato, and pickle. Same goes with life. We all co-exist. But when we share our collective experiences and make fulfilling personal connections, that’s when the best stuff happens. How have you “dressed” up your life this week?

Consultant/ Project Controls/ Project Manager Professional/ Strategic Account Manager | If I can handle a 3 year-old, I can manage any project you throw at me!
I find it inspiring to see how Mountain View Printing & Graphics Ltd. has been quietly making a difference in our community by supporting organisations like Inn from the Cold, Calgary Food Bank, Calgary Humane Society, and Kingdom Coffee to name a few... How do other businesses out there integrate giving back into their business models? Whether it's through charitable donations, volunteering, or other forms of support, I'd love to hear about the creative ways companies are making a positive impact. #Question: As a small business, what unique approaches do you take to give back to your community, and how do you balance this with the demands of running your business? Is this something even on your radar? #yyc #GivingBack #CommunityImpact #SmallBusiness #CorporateResponsibility
If you could read the thought bubble over my head… This is what I’m thinking today: Behind the busy scenes—the crazy pace of our print business—nobody knows about the ways in which we support our local community. For years, we have been donating to and supporting local charitable organizations like: Inn from the Cold, Calgary Food Bank, Calgary Humane Society and Kingdom Coffee. As a small business owner, we can only do this if we’re successful. We can help make a difference because we have the capacity (and the compassion). It’s the other side nobody sees. If you’re a small business owner, how do you do it? #MVP #MVPrinters #MountainViewPrinting #Calgary #Alberta #GivingBack #Community

In 2023, 8.8 million Californians experienced food insecurity. This means that nearly 1 in every 4 individuals are unsure where their next meal will come from. Every year, lawyers across the state come together to try to provide critical funds to local food banks. So please join us in donating to your local food bank. If you don't have one, please consider donating to our firm's local food bank. Contra Costa County often receives far less resources than San Francisco and Alameda. But Contra Costa County has areas of significant need, including Richmond, Concord, and Pittsburg. https://lnkd.in/gYviBwzJ

Did you know many companies are beginning to send client gifts around Thanksgiving now instead of December? This puts your company first on client's minds when they receive your gift before others! Imagine sending a beautiful gift of wine to your clients that can sit on their Thanksgiving table. They can share with their friends and families while seeing your logo/information and keeping your business top of mind! If you would like more information, DM me for a mock up! #wineforimpact #winewithpurpose #charity #gifting #nonprofits #corporategifting #events
