We just wrapped Hackweek where our whole company said no to meetings and used the time to carry out projects that truly matter to us. 🚀 Our team came together to tackle product challenges, tech debt, and move forward new ideas with passion and creativity. Hackweek isn't just about innovation; it's a powerful team-building exercise that embodies our core values of trust, community, and growth. 🤝 Seeing our team collaborate, share, and support each other has been truly inspiring. Stay tuned to see what we build next! ✨

I recently had the privilege of volunteering on a rebranding project for Fresh Start Pallet Products Inc through Catchafire. It was a rewarding experience to contribute to such a meaningful cause and work with a dedicated team. A special thanks to Jenna, who was fantastic to collaborate with. Her clear communication and enthusiasm made this project a success. Thank you, #Catchafire, for providing the opportunity to support Fresh Start Pallet Products in their journey. It’s inspiring to see the positive impact that a strong, community-focused brand can have. Looking forward to seeing the continued success of Fresh Start Pallet Products as they move forward with their new identity! #VolunteerWork #rebranding #nonprofit #CommunityImpact #impact

I have the absolute pleasure to announce that I am a volunteer at Catchafire. I joined their program because it gives me the opportunity to volunteer in many ways on the short term. I believe in the strength of giving back to important causes that help shape the world. I have been looking for such a space and I love what they do. The website is user friendly and helps me find projects that are very interesting. With the causes which I defend being around mental health, women's health and women and young girls rights I am very blessed to start my second semester in such an amazing way. https://lnkd.in/eRyGFTT3
