CXIS assisted the Salvation Army with building an Insurance Company Partnership Program centered around brand awareness, online / social media engagement, and putting more Good in the world.  The objective is partnering P&C Insurance Companies with the Salvation Army’s Disaster Relief Services to help those in need when disaster strikes.  Sponsorship investment from P&C Insurance Companies will support the Salvation Army’s disaster relief efforts and ongoing local community support.

Showing support for our troops is very important to us here at CXIS. That’s why every month we send letters of appreciation to those serving in our military, and this month was no different. July’s outreach entails sending appreciation letters & gifts to active duty military personnel, including an assortment of different hot sauces (because who doesn’t love hot sauce?).

This month, our talented and skillful Team member Kerryann Kanch drew a beautiful picture which will be sent to a member of our Armed Forces. Darius Bivins led the efforts of partnering with Operation Gratitude, an organization which sends care packages to those serving in various branches of our U.S. Military (Click the link to see more of the awesome things they’re doing: www.operationgratitude.com ). A final copy of the picture was signed by the rest of the CXIS Team to show that whoever receives our care package has our full support while they do their job of keeping us all safe.

Members of our CXIS outreach team partnered with Feeding Tampa Bay, a food bank which provides food & groceries to families throughout The Tampa Bay area. CXIS sorted different food items in the warehouse where items are stored before being distributed to families in need. Feeding Tampa Bay provides food to over 400,000 people in the West Central Florida region. To learn more about what Feeding Tampa Bay is doing in our community please see their website for additional information: https://www.feedingamerica.org/take-action

CXIS provided key supplies to the St. Pete VA THRIVE Program, which assists Veterans in need with getting “back to normal” and then “thriving”.  CXIS maintains a core philosophy of supporting our Veterans through ongoing community efforts, employment, and related programs.  

We had the privilege to run for Colin Madden, one of our team members who passed away earlier this year. We participated in the Phil Doganiero 3 Bridge Run which included the Half Marathon, 5k, and 1 Mile Fun Run/Walk which benefits the Clearwater For Youth Program (CFY). In addition to the proceeds from the race which benefit CFY , CXIS also raised $5,000 for cancer research – A cause that Colin was very passionate about.

To end the year, we were privileged to help raise funds for families in need this holiday season. Members of our team were able to do so by spending a weekend Bell Ringing for the Salvation Army. We had fun helping spread holiday cheer, while also being able to participate in a cause that gives back to families in our local community.
