American Cancer Society

One of THE best teams of people working for the American Cancer Society. In the world of non-​profit, there’s a neverending turnover rate that can be incredibly annoying for anyone who intends on working with a org like this for more than a year. Sometimes it’s hard to get people to commit to something you’re working on or to get in touch with them because they’re just putting in that one year of service. That and they’re horribly underpaid, so going above and beyond isn’t really high on their list of To Do’s.
With the Unilocalers’ auction this year, I was on the phone with some of the ladies at this office A LOT. Lindsey, in particular, was incredibly helpful and really understanding. When someone from a non-​profit, who answers a million questions a day, recognizes your phone number when you call and answers with a, «Hey Trish, how’s it going?». it’s some kind of wonderful (well. unless your name isn’t Trish. Why you be using my phone?). Not to mention Donna who has been with the organization for awhile doing a wonderful job with the Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walk. Their response time and availability were top notch and I wouldn’t hesitate to work with them again for any event they decide to run. I really couldn’t have gotten through the auction without them.
