2025 Gratitude for YOU
Total & complete appreciation for YOU!
As we are moving toward the holiday season, we want to pause and express our gratitude to each of you for staying in the work in the face of challenges to our collective humanity & fight for justice. We’ll continue to show up with you, always support our mutual understanding of financials, and lift up how you all as finance & ops professionals are key strategists at your organizations – now & always.
We hope you have some time for rest, family, friends & good food coming soon!
Wrapping up our 2025 with three deep breaths and thankful for:
