Comms & Media's FY'25: "Helping Hands Benefit"

Dear Comms + Media Family,

As the holiday season approaches, we are reminded of the many blessings in our lives—the joy of gathering with loved ones, exchanging gifts, and celebrating with cheer. Yet, this time of year is also a season of giving, and it can be a challenging period for those who are struggling to make ends meet.

For the past three years, I’ve had the privilege of leading efforts to brighten the holidays for children in our local school system. Last year, thanks to your generosity, we sponsored five fifth-grade classrooms—more than 60 students—at Binery Elementary School in Atlanta, GA. These students, chosen by their school administration for their hard work and commitment to excellence, received gifts and essentials that made their holiday season truly special. You can revisit the impact we made in this press release from last year.

Building on last year’s success, I’m thrilled to share that we are expanding our efforts! This year, we’ll be supporting both Binery Elementary School and Big Brothers Big Sisters of New Hampshire , an organization close to Lloyd Fernandes’ heart.

Our goal is to raise at least $7,500 between both organizations. Together, we can help ensure these children feel seen, celebrated, and supported during the holidays.

Your continued support has been nothing short of incredible, and I am deeply grateful for your participation in this meaningful tradition. Let’s come together once again to spread joy and make a lasting impact in our community.

***The deadline to contribute is Monday, December 16th***

Thank you for being a part of this mission to give back. Together, we can make this holiday season truly magical for those who need it most.

-Brandon & Lloyd
