Manchester, N.H. — The Livery Management Consultants (LMC) Group participated in its annual #GivingTuesday tradition on November 29 by raising money for New Horizons for NH, a New Hampshire organization that operates an adult homeless shelter, soup kitchen, food pantry, and Angie's Shelter for Women. #GivingTuesday is a grassroots movement held on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving that encourages businesses and organizations to help others through the gift of time, donations, goods, or raising awareness.
In LMC’s second year participating in #GivingTuesday, team members reached 100% staff participation and raised $2,000 with their 100% company match.
“Compassion and generosity are among our top core values as an organization,” remarked LMC Founder Kristen Carroll. #GivingTuesday is LMC’s favorite holiday; it’s a time every member of our team participates in a cause that is important to us.”
This year LMC chose to support New Horizons for NH, a cause that team member Kim Fisher has been involved with for many years.
The LMC Group also offered “LinkedIn for a Cause,” in which Social Media Manager Aleja Seabron restructured LinkedIn profiles for clients in exchange for donations to New Horizons. Your Private Limo (YPL) in Chicago, Ill., took first advantage of this offering, and Able Limousine in Hopkinton, Ma., ensured the efforts finished strong. Meanwhile, in Atlanta, LMC team member Stephanie Carnes sold 350 of her “soon-to-be world famous” chocolate chip cookies with 100% of proceeds going to New Horizons.
The fundraising efforts ended successfully with LMC and Grace Limousine joining forces to “Stuff-A-Stretch” with nonperishable food, toiletries, and adult winter items. Earlier this month, Grace joined other local businesses in sponsoring New Horizons' Thanksgiving Breakfast, which members of The LMC Group also attended
“As a local, family-owned business for more than 25 years, Grace Limousine has come to greatly appreciate the work of organizations like New Horizons for New Hampshire,” Grace Limousine’s president, Michael Campbell, commented. “They are vital to our community, and it is our pleasure to stand with them and share in the work they do.”
At the end of the 2016 #GivingTuesday fundraising campaign, these combined efforts totaled nearly $6,000.
