Goodwill Launches Kindness at Work Speaker Series

Coconut Telegraph

In 2016, Goodwill Manasota partnered with the previous mayor of North Port, Jacqueline Moore, to launch a community-wide campaign called Kindness Community. The effort was designed to make a positive impact by bringing the community together and encouraging acts of kindness. More than 10,000 people have signed the Kindness Pledge. To enhance the effort, Goodwill has engaged leaders in the local business community to share their experiences at work and beyond, to make our community a better place through a speaking series. The talks will take place monthly throughout the summer with three speakers at each event. Tickets are $20/person or $150 for tables of six with lunch included. The first talk will be held on June 23 at the Goodwill Corporate Campus in Bradenton, speakers will include; Jaime DiDomenico of Cool Today/Plumbing Today, Brian West from Publix, and Margarita Valenzula of Culver's.
