We wanted to share a couple team photos from the day. Thank you to all who donated and walked.
Schooley Mitchell’s Adam Baker, recently co-hosted a 50th anniversary celebration for Community Shelter Services at the Mound Grove Golf Course in Erie, Pennsylvania. The event was a huge success, with attendees enjoying a night of food, drinks, and live entertainment while raising funds to support the organization’s mission of helping homeless individuals and families in the community. Baker’s involvement and support for the cause were greatly appreciated by the organizers and attendees alike, and the event served as a reminder of the importance of coming together to support those in need.
Michael Baznick recently had the honor of helping sort food donations at the myFM All Hands on Deck Food Drive. The one day drive raised almost $10K in food and donations to feed needy kids in the Halton area.
Schooley Mitchell’s Lori McDowell participated in a fundraiser for The Women’s Home called Over the Edge, where she raised over $2400 and was able to rappel off the Galleria Doubletree Hotel.
Michael recently helped support the Annual Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Basketball Tournament held at The Ark of St. Sabina Church where Rev. Michael Pfleger is the Pastor. This event offers a safe & fun environment for inner-city youth to compete and promote sportsmanship and health, while honoring the legacy of MLK.
The Rotary Club of Wausau and the Wausau Early Birds Rotary donated roughly $6,300 to the Marathon County Hunger Coalition to buy weekend packs for students in Edgar, Colby and Mosinee, Wisconsin, and Strategic-Partner Denis Tan generously volunteered to help load the food onto trucks.
Business Optimization Specialist Kevin O’Shaughnessy recently donated some feminine hygiene products to Fulfill NJ.
Kevin participated in an online Women in Business function with his Chamber of Commerce, and the president of Fulfill, Kim Guadagno, mentioned these products were very much needed since they are not food stamp eligible.
Way to go Kevin – This is such a great way to support your community!
