The Charity Coalition luncheons were established in September 2014 by the Church of Scientology to provide a platform for members of Tampa Bay area nonprofits to come together and collaborate for positive change in our community. The anniversary banquet in September 2015 hosted representatives from 100 organizations. Previous speakers have included Neil Brickfield, Executive Director of Pinellas Sheriff's Police Athletic League, Michelle Turman, Principal Consultant at Catalyst Consulting Agency and Emily Benham, CEO of Nonprofit Leadership Center of Tampa Bay.
"Scientology Founder L. Ron Hubbard wrote that 'A community that pulls together can make a better society for all' and we, as a community, have a unique opportunity to do that through the Charity Coalition," said Pat Harney, the spokesperson for the Church of Scientology's international religious retreat in Clearwater.
The event is open to any board member, executives, volunteers or staff from a non-profit organization. There is no cost to attend.
