It’s officially kickoff day! 🚀 Today marks the first planning meeting for a client’s 2026 United Way engagement campaign, and I couldn't be more excited to get started.

Workplace-giving is about so much more than just "checking a box"—it’s about tapping into your company culture and connecting your team to the community in a way that truly resonates. But if the planning and ex*****on feel like a heavy lift for an already stretched team, I can help.

In 2024, I was honored to be named Exceptional Engagement Coordinator of the Year by United Way of Central Indiana. 🏆 This recognition was a testament to the creativity and strategy I bring to every program.
