Hands On! Philanthropy - Building Bridges at the Morris County Chamber of Commerce

HOP Overview and Objectives

​The Morris County Chamber of Commerce (MCCC) is dedicated to creating an atmosphere that brings together companies and nonprofits to build relationships and collaborate in creating a thriving business and community environment.   The Chamber team, led by Meghan Hunscher, understands that creating experiences for their members is job one. 
 
The Chamber's Health & Wellness Committee, chaired by Kathy D'Agati, offers health and wellness professionals an avenue to share their expertise, build their businesses, and connect with peers and potential collaborators.   Corporate Chamber members at large gain access to health and wellness information and programs that can translate into more vibrant, productive employees.  And individual members gain the knowledge and tools they need to lead happier, healthier lives.

​One of Kathy’s main goals is to inspire health and wellness practitioners to give back to the community.  Kathy partnered with Jay Weisman, founder of Legacy Philanthropy Group (LPG) to deliver LPG’s Hands On! Philanthropy (HOP) collaborative giving workshop.  Kathy saw this program as the perfect opportunity to build stronger relationships among her committee members and to promote their businesses.   She knew that a hands-on, experiential collaborative giving program would deliver great value to her Health and Wellness committee while making a huge impact in the community.  Kathy and Jay got Sally Glick, Chief Growth Strategist at SobelCo LLC, involved as a peer mentor.  Sally is singular as a source of knowledge and in her role as a convener in the nonprofit community.  


The goals of the HOP workshop are to explore key concepts around purposeful philanthropy while refining key personal and professional skills such as communication, collaboration, decision making, storytelling, and the sharing of values. Participants are challenged to understand and articulate what social causes really matter to them and why. With that, those participants form teams and set out to identify nonprofits that share their visions and passions.
