Yea it’s a five minute video, who watches those anymore! However, if you followed us over the course of Serve Week 2024 (The Ocho) this is an awesome wrap up and great work by the team. We try and use LinkedIn to open a window into our culture. And while Foundry Commercial isn’t perfect and we will always have work to do in pursuit of our standards, I think this is one of the things we get really right. We are a services company and spending time with these amazing organizations, which we encourage you to check out and support, reminds us what true service looks like. It is a week where we try to give back and we always end up getting so much more than we give. Great job Lauren and the entire Serve Week support team. #foundrycommercial #itspersonal #theocho #serveweek2024

If you haven't been before, the Tillamook County Fair is a can't miss summer event. My recommendation: Get some quality ice cream from a local favorite and go check out the 4-H club events. If you really want to go crazy, eat that ice cream during the Pig n' Ford race - just look it up. Mark you calendars for next year! And check out the video linked below to learn more about how TCCA shows up during the fair.

This inspiring nonprofit was looking for a solution to refurnish their new office under a tight budget, yet they still wanted to create a warm and inviting environment for their employees and guests. AIS and OMNIA Partners, Nonprofit were able to provide them with the opportunity to purchase brand new furniture that offered substantial savings and allowed for them to stay in budget. OMNIA Partners, Nonprofit harnesses the power of cooperative purchasing to lower costs & simplify procurement decisions. For a nonprofit, like PACE, saving time and money is crucial to continued success and growth, and we are excited to continue our partnership with AIS to make it happen!

One of the initiatives that I worked on this year was the relaunch of Tyson Foods' Community Giving Program.

#NTXGivingDay2023 is tomorrow. Not only is it a great opportunity to support local causes, but it's also a great way to demonstrate what really matters to those little ones at home. This year, when you give, a few ideas: 1) Talk to your kids about why you gave, how you selected which charities to support, how you feel like those causes reflect what matter most to you or what you hope our community can be. 2) Ask them what causes they care about and research charities that work on those issues. 3) Talk about what needs the charities fill and what issues cause the problems they address. 4) And, talk about ways you can address the root causes. It may be simple. It may be complex, but let's use this as an opportunity to build up the next gen of philanthropists and community changers.
