Thank you Goodwill Industries of Dallas, Inc. for inviting the Texas Beacons of Excellence project with UNT WISE to the LUNCH! The work you do makes incredible impacts in the community. We look forward to our continued partnership, Tim Heis and Arden Floran! #UNTWISEWorks

Risk Boldly, Live Fully What an amazing theme and event held by the Goodwill Industries of Dallas, Inc. - The Lunch was inspiring and thought provoking and FRS was honored to participate. Loved hearing Kathryn Cassidy's words about the great work Goodwill Industries is doing in the Dallas area. The story of Natasha was moving and really illustrated the mission of Goodwill. Lastly, hearing the words of Lindsey Vonn on facing challenges, finding the lessons in, and moving past, failures was a reminder to all of us of how much more we can accomplish.

?Kevin and I had an inspiring time attending The Lunch hosted by Goodwill Industries of Dallas, Inc. Their impactful works in the community are truly commendable, changing lives and making a difference in our neighborhood through ??donated goods social enterprise and ??workforce development services. The event's theme, "Risk Boldly and Live Fully," was exemplified by Lindsey Vonn's remarkable story. From becoming an Olympic gold medalist and World Cup champion ski racer to venturing into new business endeavors and empowering young girls through her foundation, Lindsey's journey urged us all to embrace risks and live up to our fullest potential. A special shoutout to Hannah Davis for being an exceptional interview host!???? Grateful to Maria & Michael Stamolis for the invitation and for their unwavering dedication to serving the community. Your commitment is truly inspiring! #ServingHeart #RiskBoldlyLiveFully #BeInspired

It was my honor to represent J.P. Morgan and our proud partnership with Goodwill Industries of Dallas, Inc. at “The Lunch” yesterday.

We are proud to support Goodwill’s mission to empower people to overcome barriers and achieve lasting success. Thank you to my friends at Goodwill Tim Heis & Lauren Banta Holloway for your leadership, and to Lindsey Vonn for being such an inspiring special guest!

What an incredible day celebrating the lives of our clients and employees who take bold risks every day to overcome barriers in the pursuit of their dreams. Thank you to J.P. Morgan, all of our sponsors, and the leadership of Kathryn Cassidy, Tim Heis , Kyle Miller , and Jake Masso for making this an incredible event in support of the Goodwill Industries of Dallas, Inc. mission. Not to mention the amazing Hannah Davis conversation with the one and only Lindsey Vonn !

It was a pleasure to attend "The Lunch" today. This event is Goodwill Industries of Dallas, Inc. big fundraiser of the year and they executed it flawlessly. Lindsey Vonn was a thoughtful and entertaining Special Guest. Thanks so much for your support for Goodwill, Lindsey!

Live boldly. What a treat to hear from the queen herself — Lindsey Vonn — on why fear is a “silly emotion,” and to celebrate the great work Goodwill Industries of Dallas, Inc. is doing in our community. Thanks for supporting inspiring organizations and helping to make the world we want to live in Corgan ????

Wonderful to be with Lindsey Vonn, someone I've long admired, at the Lunch today. A big thank you for supporting Goodwill Industries of Dallas, Inc. with your encouraging themes around risking boldy and living fully. Lindsey's messages are universal: -Welcome failure, as that is where the real growth comes; the lessons are not in winning. -Being prepared removes the fear of risk. -What an impact you can have by giving your full presence to another in the small moments. -Be nice, and be better. In our family, we've long been a fan of your achievements in your sport, and your work ethic, grit and openness to learn, of course - but even more admirable is the way you give back to others through your Foundation and your work with youth, and your advocacy around mental wellness. There are so many possibilities for your continued impact and we look forward to cheering you on.

So very proud of this partnership. ConnectIDD and Goodwill Industries of Dallas, Inc. team have created a program called Empowerment Works, where we work to improve access to work and community for adults with IDD.
