The clinic also received a Bronze Award for their overall percentage of participation, leadership giving and average gift amount.
United Way of Southeast Mississippi hosts this event every year to say thank you to the organizations that raise money for the United Way and its partner agencies. It also gives attendees the opportunity to learn about the positive impact their donations make for our communities.
United Way of Southeast Mississippi is a local nonprofit organization that strives to make a positive impact in Forrest, Lamar, Marion and Perry Counties. The organization provides financial assistance to local partnering agencies and addresses community issues in the four impact areas of education, economic mobility, health and support services. Every donation made to United Way of Southeast Mississippi helps support 20 partner agencies and programs in the Pine Belt. Hattiesburg Clinic physicians and employees directly impact these communities by signing up to give monetarily through workplace giving.
When asked about the importance of workplace giving, Greer Rushing, marketing manager with Hattiesburg Clinic, said:
“Having the opportunity to support something so locally driven and catered to the needs of our community is an honor. When we pour into our community, our community becomes a better place.”
