CLEARWATER, Fla., June 21, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- When nearly 90 members of the Tampa Bay Area non-profit community gathered at the historic Fort Harrison on the 20th of June, they walked away with a renewed spirit of unity, and additional skills to help their groups be more successful.
The program was hosted by the Church of Scientology at the Fort Harrison Crystal Ballroom.
After a welcome by Dylan Pires, the Community Affairs Director for the Church of Scientology in Clearwater, guests were enlightened on Unity 1 Global, a non-profit dedicated bringing people together on a global level to address some of the world’s most pressing issues. Speaking on behalf of the charity were the group’s Co-Founders Chuck Sullivan and Prash Pavaghadi.
Mr. Sullivan spoke about how high tech can be used by non-profits to reach potential supporters, beyond just standard social media formats. Mr. Pavaghadi spoke of how Unity 1 Global works with other non-profits, using the platforms that were developed to help address key social and humanitarian issues.
Following the spotlight charity, the Charity Coalition’s Educational segment focused on how to produce events – and what lies behind successful fundraisers, board presentations, volunteer activation events and anniversary celebrations – planning. As a part of the segment, guests were provided with their own template for planning their future events.
“The purpose of the Charity Coalition is to provide a networking event where like-minded non-profit leaders and activists can gather, share resources and partner on community projects,” said Pires. “We have been achieving that with many non-profits partnering and being able to do more as a result.
The Church hosts bimonthly Charity Coalition Luncheons bringing together leaders in the nonprofit community of the greater Tampa area to encourage mutual cooperation and networking and accomplish humanitarian goals for the region.
