We are proud to be part of the PTP Gives Back team and to have had the opportunity to serve at the American Cancer Society’s Hope Lodge in Dallas.
For those who might not know, our PTP Gives Back team coordinates all of PTP’s community service efforts. We’ve been active across the country, from Boston to Ohio, supporting food pantries and local organizations. Since 2022, we’ve made a dedicated effort to partner with the American Cancer Society, an organization close to our hearts.
Here in Texas, we took a different approach this time. Instead of our usual dinner party, some long-time family friends and I decided to collaborate on a special dinner service for the Hope Lodge in Dallas. This impressive facility, just three years old, offers 50 guest rooms, game rooms, TV/movie rooms, an exercise facility, and transportation to nearby hospitals for those undergoing cancer treatment.
Last night, we served a Greek-inspired menu that the guests and their caregivers seemed to enjoy, followed by some fun PTP Trivia with small prizes. It was a wonderful opportunity to connect with the guests, hear their stories, and support them during a challenging time.
If anyone at PTP is interested in joining our community service efforts, please reach out! Our PTP Gives Back team works closely with the American Cancer Society on various fundraising and service opportunities, primarily based in Boston, MA, where PTP is headquartered.
Special thanks to Mark H. and family, and the Besel family, for helping plan, prepare, and serve the meal. Your partnership made this evening truly special.
