Charity Coalition Luncheon in Fort Harrison.
- Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater, FL (1888PressRelease) January 12, 2016 - On 24 February, the Church of Scientology Flag Service Organization will host 140 members of non-profit organizations in the historic Fort Harrison for the first Charity Coalition Luncheon of 2016.
The February 24th luncheon will include an educational segment covering fundraising essentials and include a presentation by the Hillsborough Education Foundation. Executives and board members of charitable organizations are invited. There is no cost to attend.
Established in September 2014, the Charity Coalition luncheons are held bi-monthly. "In alignment with basic principles laid down by our Church's founder, Mr. L. Ron Hubbard, we host the luncheons for non-profits to network and collaborate on new initiatives and partnership for future improvements of our community" said Mrs. Jennifer Webb, Community Affairs Director for the Church.
Earlier luncheons featured topics such as: getting the support of donors, building a board, volunteer management and internet marketing.
Featured charities have included Children's Home Society of Florida, the PACE Center for Girls, Nourish to Flourish, Religious Community Services and Mothers of Minors. The Charity Coalition Anniversary Banquet in September 2015 featured Florida Sheriff's Police Athletic League with 263 guests in attendance. Since September 2014, the number of non-profit organizations represented at the Luncheons has grown from 31 to over 150.
"I feel that some of the best accomplishments of the Charity Coalition are the partnerships and encouragement that it provides to organizations in our area," states Giselle Rodriguez, Outreach Coordinator for the Florida Coalition Against Human Trafficking, "the previous event reminded our organization that the work that we do is important and gave us the motivation to continue helping others."
