In a wonderful display of teamwork, team members from Lexington, KY, and Huntsville, Alabama, joined forces to donate 8,860 candy-filled plastic Easter eggs to local foster organizations. Most donated eggs already filled with candy, but some team members even coordinated stuffing parties to do it together! These eggs were graciously donated to support two significant organizations: @bairfoundation in Lexington and the North Alabama Foster Closet in Huntsville. We hope this donation drive provided immense joy to foster children and families and added festive cheer to Easter celebrations in these communities. #YulistaCARES #fosteringconnections ...

YulistaCARES and @ncac_hsv in #HuntsvilleAL are joining forces to spread the word about Child Abuse Prevention during the month of April. National Child Abuse Prevention Month recognizes the importance of families and communities working together to prevent child abuse and neglect. If you are someone looking for guidance, #YulistaCARES has a resource table accessible to team members and the public at Cafe US located in our Huntsville headquarters. The pinwheels you see around Huntsville represent a message of hope. To raise awareness of child abuse prevention, we encourage everyone to wear blue on Tuesdays throughout April. This is a colorful reminder that this month is about child abuse advocacy, education, resource sharing, and ultimately, prevention. ...

Since 2014, Yulista has provided school supplies and backpacks to the Calista Region in Alaska and to Madison County here in Alabama. Our goal this year was to provide 1000 backpacks; we met our goal of donating 500 to Alaska and 500 to schools and agencies in Madison County. One of those local agencies was the National Children’s Advocacy Center. We were excited to deliver the backpacks and hope that this small donation will make a difference for the children in our communities. ⠀

On #PurpleHeartDay, Yulista honors the brave men and women who were either wounded on the battlefield, or paid the ultimate price with their lives. We extend our most sincere gratitude to those who have served our Nation, sacrificed so much, and earned this distinguished military decoration.

#TeamYulista We are right in the middle of our annual Backpack Campaign and we still have a long way to go! Backpack supply kits are only $10 each, and by purchasing even just one kit, you`re helping us reach our goal of 1200 kits! These kits are going to 3 schools in the Lower Kuskokwim school district in Alaska as well as to schools in Hawaii, New Jersey, Texas, and Alabama.

And if you`re saying to yourself "I`ll do it later," please keep in mind that our campaign ends at the end of June because of tight shipping deadlines this year. In other words, check that box now instead of later. 😀 The link to purchase kits is in our bio.

If you are not part of Team Yulista but would like to contribute, we welcome and appreciate your generosity! #YulistaCares

We did it! #YulistaCARES received well over 1200 school supply kit donations during the month of June... which means not only did we meet our goal, but we crushed it! We`ll fill up our Yulista backpacks with the supplies and deliver them to schools in Alaska, Texas, New Jersey, Hawaii and Alabama! And we couldn`t have met our tight deadline without the support of #TeamYulista and all of YOU! Thank you so much! #WeAreYulista ...

Something that has been on my heart over the past few years is getting more invested in my community and creating opportunities to give back. Last year, I accepted a position on the Board of my company’s Non-Profit program, Yulista CARES. Today, I accepted the position of Chairman of the Board. I can’t fully express how excited I am to really pour my heart into my city and continue to provide a helping hand. We have so many incredible organizations that provide essential services and aid to those who are struggling ranging over a multitude of issues. Huntsville is such a dynamic place and if the past year has taught us anything, we all could use a helping hand. #yulistacares ...
