Connect With the Spero Family
We’ve been here, there, and everywhere lately!
⛳ On August 22nd, we competed in the Lions Club Golf Tournament. Proceeds from the event support the Lions Club’s work in the community, including providing vision care and educational opportunities to those who need it most.
📚 Three team members helped @usc_upstate kick off the new school year with their annual Premiere Fair. The Premiere Fair is an opportunity for students to get involved and learn about all the activities their campus has to offer.
✍️ Lastly, our most recent Leadership Essentials group completed their training last week. This class is offered to current and emerging leaders at Spero and covers topics like what it means to be a leader, FMLA/ADA requirements, and conflict resolution.
Great job, Team Spero!
We’ve been on the go this month! 🏃
🤝 The newest members of Team Spero volunteered at @miraclehillthriftstores to get to know one another while giving back to the Taylors community.
💵 Our financial wellness crew stopped by Vermeer to host a workshop all about saving.
🥳 And last but not least, we swung by @uwofandersonco`s 80th Anniversary Gala to celebrate their legacy of impact!
Let’s keep the momentum going as we head into the fall! 🤸
