MENDHAM, N.J. (January 14, 2022) – YouGiveGoods, an innovative e-commerce charitable giving platform, announced that VP of Corporate and Community Partnerships Michelle Seideneck, was honored by Boys & Girls Clubs of Union County with its Outstanding Corporate Partner Award at their Annual Meeting held in December 2021. Presented annually, this award recognizes the individual/corporation who provided an extraordinary partnership and collaboration to benefit the organization and the children they serve.
Michelle was selected based on her dedication to the children and advocacy for Boys & Girls Clubs of Union County in her work bringing new corporate sponsors to support their programs through YouGiveGoods virtual drives. Michelle was instrumental in introducing and nurturing relationships with corporations such as Bausch Health, Sanofi, York Capital and Wolf & Company. These new corporate relationships are key to supporting the many programs offered at the Clubs and help widen their reach and impact.
In fact, in 2021 Michelle was single-handedly responsible for orchestrating their corporate sponsored virtual Holiday Gift Drive that ultimately raised over 1,000 brand-new holiday toys and gifts distributed between the three Union County Clubs for kids in the community who otherwise might have none. In addition to toys, YouGiveGoods giving events held during 2021 raised much-needed school supplies and books for children of all ages.
Boys & Girls Clubs of Union County’s Director of Development and Marketing, Lisa Sepetjian, explains, “Michelle does as much for us as any board member. I don’t think of her and YouGiveGoods as a 3rd party vendor but as a true partner. She is dedicated, hard-working and great at what she does. Every corporate relationship that she has facilitated for our organization has directly benefitted at risk kids in our community.”
Michelle has been with YouGiveGoods, since 2014. In her work as VP of Corporate and Community Partnerships, Michelle connects socially conscious corporations with nonprofits by creating custom virtual employee giving events on YouGiveGoods.com raising brand-new food and supplies for nonprofits across the country.
“We are so proud of Michelle for being recognized for her outstanding work by the Boys & Girls Clubs of Union County,” YouGiveGoods’ CEO Lisa Tomasi states. “She truly embodies YouGiveGoods’ mission to provide premium online charitable giving services, promote community involvement, and inspire social responsibility. Her passion and dedication to serving the needs of our corporate and nonprofit partners as well as the community at large is deserving of commendation.”
