My boss pitched the idea of creating vlogging content from the company's perspective. The reasoning is that most corporate videos are too corporatey, if that makes any sense, lol. I took the idea and ran with it, helping coordinate our team's donation to a local food pantry. It was a lot of fun. According to HubSpot in a 2024 Instagram report, 35% of the content that brands post is content that reflects your brand's values. According to Hootsuite's Social Media Trends 2025 report, nearly half of all brands post 61% to 100% content to entertain, educate, or inform without directly promoting their organization, products, or services. The data is there to take the risk and do some creative content. No one is perfect, and you can quickly tell I'm not the best at it, but give it a shot and see what happens. #SocialMedia #SocialMediaTrends #CreativeMarketing #DigitalMarketing

Post-pandemic inflation leading to increased food prices, reductions in federal food assistance benefits, and demographic shifts, including the influx of migrants -- all of these factors collectively contribute to the unprecedented demand faced by essential organizations such as food pantries across Chicago. It is also important to recognize the human impact behind these numbers -- the emotional toll of having to choose between basic necessities (like housing and food) underscores the critical role food pantries play in providing support during difficult times. To grasp the importance of tackling food insecurity in our communities, we must first seek out and listen to these personal experiences. That’s what we do! Whether through corporate partnerships, volunteering efforts, or advocating for policy changes, there exist various avenues for meaningful engagement. For example, Good Hope Foundation, Inc. (goodhopefnd.com) and Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc. (Rho Gamma Gamma chapter) partner monthly with a local food pantry. Doing so helps raise awarenesssnd helps fill the void in regards to these key issues and support those most vulnerable in our underserved communities. #FoodPantries #CommunityEngagement #FoodInsecurity #ChicagoCommunity
