ISF Cares

Volunteer Spotlight

ISF staff donate much of their free time to activities benefiting worthy causes throughout the community. Our Staff Spotlight highlights one such individual and his or her personal dedication to a cause.

Tammy Young ISF Business Development Coordinator and Project Manager, Tammy Young, has been selected to serve as a member of The Florida State University Family Connection Advisory Council. Through an application process, Council members are selected to serve as liaison between the university and current students and their family members to promote information sharing and encourage family involvement at the university. In Fall of 2011, Tammy's eldest son became the third generation Young to attend FSU, following in the footsteps of both Tammy and her husband Joe, as well as Joe's mother, who graduated from FSU when it was the Florida State College for Women.

ISF Cares Campaign

ISF Cares is ISF's corporate community involvement campaign. At the core of ISF's belief system is the concept that we can accomplish more when we work together. Inspired by this core principle, ISF undertakes community involvement initiatives that require little of each individual, but the sum of which is significant. Participation is never mandatory, but our staff always heed the call. In August 2011, ISF held a month long book drive to collect new and gently used children's books for donation to The Early Learning Coalition of the Big Bend's "My First Books" program. Staff responded in droves. Read a press release about the book drive on our News page.

The following is a small sampling of some of the many worthy organizations with which ISF staff are personally involved:

• Boy Scouts of America
• American Heart Association
• American Lung Association
• American Cancer Society
