Just over 300 underprivileged individuals in Pompano Beach, Florida, received much-needed eye exams and eyewear, all provided free of charge! It was truly touching to see the smiles and gratitude on their faces. For many, this was the first step toward clearer vision and a brighter future. The event was made possible by the generous sponsorship of the EssilorLuxottica Foundation. Their support allowed us to make a real difference in the lives of these individuals, giving them access to something as essential as clear vision. What made the event even more special was the presence of Stacy Walker, Royal Palm Beach store manager, along with Feras Jarwa and Val Reyes, both Target Optical regional VPs. Their dedication to this cause was evident, and their presence added warmth and sincerity to the event. 😊 It was inspiring to witness the collaborative efforts of everyone involved, from volunteers to sponsors, all coming together to help those in need. Each person's contribution, big or small, made a meaningful impact, and I feel incredibly blessed to be part of such a caring and compassionate community. 💖 #PompanoBeach #PompanoBeachFL #Luxottica #TargetOptical #Target #Team #Dontation #Care #Community #Health #EyeHealth

CEO of Accordant I Speaker I Author I Passionate Advocate for Elevating Health & Well-Being
Strategically aligned project selection to support a campaign is a key element of success. Yet, we often see organizations stumble in this area. Too often, there is a laundry list of things that are "critically important"--which means nothing is legitimately important or compelling. Alternatively, project selection falls victim to other challenges like being outside core organizational strategy, low donor appeal, a poorly developed business case, inadequate time to campaign or more. However, project selection sits at the very front of the value chain that drives success, since project selection drives the case for support which in turn drives the identification of prospective clinician and donor partners...and so on. So, this is a place to lean in and to address thoughtfully and well. I look forward to seeing everyone in Denver for the Association for Healthcare Philanthropy's Campaign Summit. Accordant is proud to be a sponsor and to be sharing content on this key topic. See you there!
Accordant is thrilled to be a sponsor at Association for Healthcare Philanthropy’s Campaign Excellence Summit next week! If you are attending the Summit, be sure to join Accordant CEO Betsy Chapin Taylor, FAHP, on Tuesday, March 19 at 12:30pm, for her Lunch & Learn session: Optimizing Campaign Project Selection. Campaigns present a significant opportunity to advance or transform the health care mission. However, to maximize the impact of charitable giving, organizations must be very strategic in selecting the right projects for philanthropy to fund. Join Betsy for a practical, actionable and candid discussion on the issues, opportunities and pathways to optimizing project selection. See you soon! #healthcare #philanthropy #campaign #projectselection

The generosity of Canadians is one of our strongest values. Donating to causes that have personal meaning and align with your core values makes giving even more rewarding. Many are donating during their lifetime so they can be active participants and witness the impact of their generosity. Starting a private family foundation has shown to be a great learning opportunity for the next gen - family values, shared purpose, shared decisions making and creating a philanthropy mission are lessons that can be part of a family's learning journey. What are your family's philanthropy goals? #eycanada #eyprivate #familyoffice #familybusiness

Moving into 2024, I've been thinking about a focus for the year, personally and for Veritus Group. A key part of our culture and ethos is focused on serving our clients and our people. While this is always a priority, delighting and surprising our clients and caring exceptionally for our team continues to be the top thing on my mind. So, when I saw this article, I had to share it with the team because there are some amazing customer services lessons and reminders in it. I encourage you to take a moment to read it as well: https://lnkd.in/gDku8WD9 Here are my top takeaways: - How can we empower our team to go above and beyond where possible? - How can we delight and surprise our clients with compassion and care? - Where can we use moments where we had to fix an issue or a misunderstanding to communicate clearly with our clients (or donors or community) so others can learn from that situation? What can you takeaway from this in how you work with your donors? #theveritusway #philanthropy #fundraising #donormanagement #customerservice #clientmanagement #fundraisingstrategy #fundraisingtips #majorgifts
