Giving With Gratitute in Boston

Giving with Gratitude
An End-Hunger Games Event in Boston

Our Corporate Explorer Training designed a custom "End Hunger Games" program to focus on giving with gratitude for Rosie’s Place, a non-profit organization helping poor and homeless women in Boston. Last month, Controllers from a Real Estate Management and Development Company created replicas of property development projects in their portfolio using non-perishable food items. At the end of the team building training session, all food was generously donated to Rosie’s Place and helped to bring nourishment and renewed hope to women living in Boston. 

Since 1974, Rosie's Place has evolved from providing meals and shelter to creating permanent solutions through advocacy, education and affordable housing. The “grocery store” contains shelves stocked with donated non perishable food items, meat and fresh produce. Each month, 1,800 women “shop” for 20 - 40 lbs of free food items. Rosie’s Place Groceries uses this culturally sensitive approach to respect the dignity and self-esteem of their guests while ensuring that valuable resources are used effectively.

A philanthropic team building and training event is a meaningful and effective way to give back to your community. Reconnect with coworkers; boost your corporate social responsibility initiatives and truly make a difference. Thanks to all participants for an incredible day and for helping us give back to Rosie's Place and the Boston community. Visit our Facebook page to see more photos!
