Sometimes a change of scenery helps the creative juices flow... and what a change of scenery it was! Yesterday, our team traversed the Hudson green to hold a planning meeting at Peg's Foundation's beautiful new building. After our meeting, our teams had the opportunity to tour the stunning art gallery, mingle, and celebrate the holiday season. We are deeply grateful to Burt and Peg Morgan, whose vision brought these sister foundations to life, and we thank the Peg's team for their warm hospitality and camaraderie. #philanthropy Daniel Hampu Denise Griggs Gina Dotson Michal Marcus Angela Kwallek Evans Emily Bean Sarah Shaw Nadia Mullin Chrissy Macso, M.Ed Souraya Pierce Rick Kellar Victoria Romanda Jocelyn Dougherty Thom Craig Pennie Spirtos Courtney Cable
