Join the Celebration

Collaborating is hard to do, but it's worth it.

We know from studies and our own lived experiences that working together takes an enormous amount of effort and trust. Our resources, reputations, and success are at stake.

But the payoff of a good collaboration is exponential! Strong partnerships result in cost savings, economies of scale and scope, synergies, and revenue enhancement. Collaboration is good business.

In one month, we will be gathering for a luncheon at Michael's On East to celebrate this phenomenon. We are honoring three of our tenant partners for their commitment to the spirit of collaboration:

And we are honoring our own Community Liaison, Christina Russi, CRS/CRS-DC. Her tireless work to connect organizations and people to resources inspires us daily.

In fact, we are continuously inspired by the work of all of our partners on our Campus of Caring and beyond, who tangle with the challenges of collaboration - because they know it's right for the community.

Let the celebrating begin!
