Social impact is the effect an organization's actions have on the well-being of the larger community. Our Regenrus Cares Program is designed to make a significant, positive change that addresses a pressing social challenge where our focus is to meet the needs for causes that we serve.
“At Regenrus, we measure and report the effect our global community actions have on the well-being of People, Animals and our Planet.”
— Cindy Tysinger
Our Member Care Specialist Jessica Alexander led her blended family small group on a food drive to support the Greensboro Urban Ministry. She successfully managed the logistics of the project, garnering a donation of 100 bags of food from their local grocer Harris Teeter. Jessica’s family was present at each step, helping to staple letters to bags and distribute packages to volunteers, who in turn delivered the packages to local families and need in their neighborhood. Because of Jessica and her family’s efforts, her neighborhood has decided to make this an annual event!
