People USA’s Post

There are two sports-related stories that have been on my mind lately. What Tim Tebow is doing is exceptional ... really special..... and changing lives and communities. He is "doing the hard things" to elevate and equip others in their "darkest hour of need." Being a "voice for the voiceless," the Tim Tebow Foundation is transforming communities that emerge from boldness, confidence, and a clear mission. How can our organizations go beyond their missions to support ignored communities? The Savannah Bananas have shown incredible perseverance during their short eight-year journey. Through consistent hard work, they have honed their business model and built a strong audience base. Despite the cultural division and anxiety of these times, they have brought joy and fun to their fans. Now, they will play in a Major League Baseball (MLB) stadium, and likely in a sold-out stadium. Boldness. Confidence. Helping the ignored. Perseverance. People-centeredness. Pure joy. That's a good list to reflect on this weekend. Which of these encourages or challenges you the most? And I'll take suggestions for how to illiterate the first three. #boldness #confidence #timtebowfoundation #perseverance #peoplefirst #joy #charity #baseball #houston #missiondriven

In addition to running my own PR consulting firm, I have also been the GM of a non-profit travel baseball program - created in NYC six years ago to provide opportunities for all kids - regardless of economic status. Every year, the East River Sharks baseball program provides scholarships to kids from various parts of NYC who can't afford the cost of joining a travel baseball team. Many of our coaches are volunteers, and we rely on donations to keep the organization running and the kids on the field! Currently 70% of our players are on scholarship! This week, for 4 days only, we are raising money for our non-profit baseball program the East River Sharks! It is weird to post this on LI, but it is part of my world of work, and part of giving back. If you are corporation, we would love your sponsorship if you are looking for a worthy cause. Or if you just want some popcorn and want to send a quick donation (by the way the popcorn is awesome), then click the link below! We are using the funds to create two new younger teams as many of our players are now in high school and college. Need more convincing about how you can help... consider this... 2 of our players have gone to the show (SF Giants and AZ Diamondbacks) 30 of our players over the last 6 years are now playing in college. And, there are more players out there to help! #nonprofits #nonprofit #baseball #youthempowerment #youthsports https://lnkd.in/eBb6gphK

Last week one of JGnil's clients, @JazzGardner, took the first steps in launching his charitable vision, The Jazz Section, providing underprivileged children with the opportunity to see big time basketball in the January 8th game @wolfpack vs @airforce..... with great results made up of big smiles and lifetime memories for the kids in attendance, shirts and of course @grimaldispizza!   Jazz also found the additional Q&A that comes with the first steps and launch, beyond the typical X's and O's of on court hoops. This is why spending time with JGnil clients BEFORE event planning to prepare for the delivery of message on a different stage is part of our process.   Another point of interest, in addition to the interview preparation, is acknowledging that many high profile entertainers are introverts and need coaching in public speaking or question/answer interviews. Additionally, many athletes and entertainers have a social media team managing their incoming AND outgoing content.     While we do not manage every aspect of our clients accounts, we do review the language for business oriented posts and the narrative we want to tell and work on making sure that message is delivered as well as discussing the domino effect of our content decisions. It is not just what is said, but even more important what is written! This is KEY in our efforts to secure brand endorsement deals as corporations want to put their product/capital behind well spoken sponsor/influencers with consistent messaging when looking for strategic partners. NOT just an influencer trying to make money This off court/field/stage prep is invaluable in all stages of the client/brand relationship...and even when you prepare, crutch words (uh, like, you know) or stress related actions (head scratch, nose itch) still manage to happen!!

Last night was day 1 of a 6 day community coaching initiative. Following the changes in the tackle rules involving height of the tackle, our team have offered all community coaches in Warrington the chance to come down with their team and see how to implement the training.
