“We are delighted to partner with Double Good to help spread joy to all of our associates throughout the Ministry with this wonderful donation of handcrafted popcorn. This special gift is in appreciation for all that they do to help support our mission to Celebrate Life and Serve with Joy,” stated Regina Umanskiy, President and CEO of Franciscan Ministries and Franciscan Advisory Services.
In all, more than 5,000 bags of popcorn will be given to associates at the Franciscan Ministries Home Office, Franciscan Communities, St. Jude House, Madonna Foundation and properties managed by Franciscan Advisory Services.
This distribution was made possible through a donation from Double Good, a product-based fundraising company in Chicago. As part of the organization’s Popcorn Donation Program, customers can support causes important to them while giving back to essential workers doing important work in their communities. Since the program’s inception in 2020, Double Good has donated over 3 million bags of popcorn to police officers, firefighters, healthcare workers, educators and other heroes.
“Double Good extends its heartfelt gratitude to Franciscan Ministries for their invaluable support in spreading joy. We are happy to share our handcrafted popcorn with these dedicated employees and partners,” said David Lenti, Head of Partnerships at Double Good.
