We recently gathered with our client, Saving Grace, at their Supporter Appreciation Event to celebrate all those who support their mission of creating safety, hope, and healing to survivors of domestic abuse. FM Civic team members, Jodelle Marx and Jenny Odom, got a chance to catch up with Saving Grace’s Executive Director Abby Rowland, and other members of the team and board. A special touch - tasty cookies with their logo by The Sparrow Bakery! So proud to partner with this essential community organization. #SavingGrace #FMCivic #ClientSpotlight

Our team was thrilled to spend the day with Heart of Oregon Corps at their press conference last week announcing Legacy 25—their new campaign to raise $2.5 million for a new campus in their 25th anniversary year! Here’s a peek into our day. HOC’s work is so important as they continue to solve for major issues facing our entire region while supporting youth and young adults to gain critical skills for the workplace. Behind the scenes at the conference, FM Civic worked alongside our HOC partners on community engagement strategy, media outreach, event management, speech writing, social media, branded materials, and all the things! #Legacy25 #FMCivic #FMCivicSpotlight #clientspotlight #heartoforegoncorps

The best part of a team? Team lunch! Checked out the Dogwood’s new location today and sampled from three different food trucks. Great way to head into the weekend! #FMCivic #teamlunch #businessdevelopment

During Black History Month, we honor the stories, accomplishments and legacies of Black Americans. This month is an opportunity to reevaluate and recommit to building communities that work well for all of us, not just some of us. As communicators, we believe in the power of words to make this happen, and our team often checks our own language to be sure we're building folks up—not stinging inadvertently in ways that make us all feel more separate. We do this with the help of resources like OHSU's Inclusive Language Guide. We invite you to review this guide, or find a different resource this month that expands your understanding of the power of language to help us keep creating a better America. https://lnkd.in/gdSGaV_T #BlackHistoryMonth #inclusivelanguage

We prioritize wellness and embrace the outdoors, family, and friends when it comes to our work life balance. It’s a big plus when you’re based in Bend and get to play and work in the PNW! Here’s a glimpse of what we got up to when we stepped away from our desks this week: skiing and cheering on our kids in their sports! #FMCivic #PNW #PacificNorthwest
