Join Forces: ā€˜Can YOUR Corporate Citizenship Better Support Military Families?ā€™

Support for military families is vital to sustaining Americaā€™s all-volunteer force, a strong national defense, and healthy business environment. But many companies donā€™t fully consider how they can be a powerful ally to military families through the combination of their voice, business practices, and philanthropy. The next great frontier in CSR is cross-sector collaboration, with organizations working collaboratively to drive ecosystem change to address issues of critical importance to military families such as transition support, economic mobility, and mental health and wellbeing.

In this session hosted by USAA attendees will discover:

• How to transform military support from annual events into strategic year-round initiatives
• Ways to leverage cross-sector partnerships that amplify impact while sharing costs
• Methods for measuring and communicating program ROI to key stakeholders
• Strategies for aligning military support with broader DEI and workforce development goals
• Frameworks for building scalable programs that address systemic challenges

Letā€™s begin a national movement and ā€œJoin Forcesā€ to elevate military causes. Through strategic advocacy and actions, companies can strengthen their brand while supporting those who have served our country with humble and selfless dedication.

The Power of Joining Forces

In this powerful 60-minute storytelling session sponsored by Gallagher, five story-tellersā€”senior leaders from corporate and nonprofit sectors will share deeply personal stories of how working across traditional boundaries transformed their understanding of leadership, impact, and human potential. Each carefully crafted 10-minute narrative will reveal a moment when crossing dividesā€”whether between sectors, cultures, or ways of thinkingā€”fundamentally shifted their approach to business and life.

These stories go beyond typical partnership case studies to explore the profound personal growth that emerges when we truly open ourselves to different perspectives and ways of working.
