Corporate Philanthropy

At Integrated Solutions Management, we are extremely passionate about the charitable causes that we support with both our time and financial resources. Members of the ISM family are actively involved with the following organizations:

 

Team in Training®

The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Team in Training® (TNT) is the world's first and largest charity sports training program.

More than 390,000 participants, from first timers to seasoned athletes, have trained with the Team and achieved their best at marathons, half marathons, triathlons, 100-mile century bike rides and hiking adventures while raising money for the battle against blood cancers.

The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) is the world's largest voluntary health organization dedicated to funding blood cancer research and providing education and patient services. LLS have invested more than $680 million in research since 1949 - over $69 million in 2009 - specifically targeting leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma. Last year alone, LLS made 4.9 million contacts with patients, caregivers and healthcare professionals.

Team in Training

Doug Rezabek, Director of Marketing, has completed two seasons, including one as a mentor, with Team in Training. He completed his first full marathon in San Francisco, CA in October of 2008 and the Disney Half Marathon in Orlando, FL in January 2010.

Bridges to Community

Bridges to Community organizes and facilitates international cross-cultural service trips for volunteers to live and work in materially poor communities. Currently focused on work in Nicaragua, this year Bridges to Community expects to take nearly 1,000 volunteers in over 50 groups to participate in development projects with our community partners.

The purpose of these trips is to help volunteers see how a vast majority of the world's population lives, by living in a materially poor community, meeting people with a different way of life, and sharing in the effort of making real changes in their community -- by building a family a house, helping dig a community well, assisting with health workshops, or any of a number of other projects.

 

Bridges to Community

Marty Burke, Executive Vice President and Chief Strategy Officer, has been to Nicaragua four times with Bridges to Community, most recently in January 2010.

Bill Banks, President, joined the Bridges trip to Nicaragua for the first time in 2010.

The Breast Cancer 3-Day

Thousands of women and men come together, each raising money for Susan G. Komen for the Cure and the National Philanthropic Trust Breast Cancer Fund. Then they take their commitment to end breast cancer one step further and walk 60 miles over the course of three days.

Eighty-five percent of the net proceeds of this event go to Susan G. Komen for the Cure. Every advancement in breast cancer research, treatment, education and prevention in the last 25 years has been touched by a Komen for the Cure grant.

The remaining fifteen percent of net funds goes to the National Philanthropic Trust Breast Cancer Fund to provide a permanent endowment for ongoing support of breast cancer initiatives.

The Breast Cancer 3-Day

Bill Banks, President, completed his fourth Breast Cancer 3-Day in 2009 -- two years providing event support and two years as a fundraising participant.

Aging Solutions

Aging Solutions, Inc. serves central Florida with the Office of Public Guardianship located in
Hillsborough County, Pasco County, and Pinellas County on the West Coast of Florida
and Brevard County on the East Coast of Florida.

The Office of Public Guardian, Inc., (OPG) serves adults with mental and/or physical disabilities as their court-appointed legal guardian when they are incapable of managing some or all of their affairs.

The Office of Public Guardian, Inc., was established to act as a substitute decision-maker for those persons who are functionally impaired to the extent that they require the protection of court intervention. The OPG provides quality public assistance in the form of guardianship services to vulnerable adults adjudicated incapacitated who have no family, friends, or resources to obtain a private guardian.

ASPCA

Rob Cribben is a major benefactor to Aging Solutions, Inc., where his wife Tamara Cribben is both the Executive Director and CEO.

The American Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals

The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) was the first humane society to be established in North America and is, today, one of the largest in the world. The organization was founded by Henry Bergh in 1866 on the belief that animals are entitled to kind and respectful treatment at the hands of humans, and must be protected under the law.

Headquartered in New York City, the ASPCA maintains a strong local presence with programs that extend the anti-cruelty mission across the country. The ASPCA is a privately funded 501(c)(3) not-for-profit corporation, and proudly boasts more than 1 million supporters across the country.

ASPCA

Eric Silverstein, Senior Governance Architect, volunteers regularly -- walking, feeding, and bathing animals -- at local ASPCA shelters in Tampa and St. Petersburg, FL. He also spent time in Gulfport, MS following hurricane Katrina at a standby shelter helping displaced animals.
