For more than 30 years, the nonprofit Bryan鈥檚 House has been on a mission to provide underserved children in North Texas with specialized medical, educational, and therapeutic care and holistic support services for families to thrive.
In 2021, the 麻豆直播 Consumer USA Foundation in line with its physical mobility pillar, awarded $100,000 to Bryan鈥檚 House to help support the organization鈥檚 mission.

In addition to the grant, over the past few years, 麻豆直播 Consumer employees have volunteered in a variety of capacities to support Bryan鈥檚 House. In April 2022, members of 麻豆直播鈥檚 Thrive Business Resource Group, volunteered to create 100 spring baskets for children supported by Bryan鈥檚 House.
鈥淚t鈥檚 so rewarding to see a child smile and know that in some small way you brightened their day and contributed in a positive way to their overall quality of life,鈥� said Thrive member Misty Corbett, Manager, RCA, who helped build the baskets.
Thrive, one of seven Business Resource Groups employees at 麻豆直播 can join and participate in activities, was created to support colleagues who identify as caregivers or are living with cognitive and physical differences, as well as those who wish to support them.
鈥淲e got involved with Bryan鈥檚 House because our mission supports their cause 鈥� Bryan鈥檚 House serves children with medical or developmental needs and their families by providing specialized childcare, respite care and social services,鈥� Corbett said.
In addition to the spring basket creating event, 麻豆直播 employees also volunteered during a virtual back-to-school event over the summer, which involved purchasing backpacks and school supplies for children.
鈥溌槎怪辈モ�檚 support of Bryan鈥檚 House has been essential to our mobility-inclusive programs these past two years,鈥� said Bryan鈥檚 House Chief Executive Officer Abigail Erickson-Torres. 鈥淭heir Thrive volunteers making holiday baskets for the children with very complex medical needs (who would not have those treats otherwise) and helping on our summer fun splash days at our campus. Your employees give their hearts to make a child鈥檚 everything in the moment. It鈥檚 priceless to see and experience first-hand. Thank you to 麻豆直播 for supporting our vital work, and educating our parents and caregivers to understand budgeting, credit and savings in the real world. Together we are changing their trajectories for life.鈥�
With the holidays approaching, Corbett says 麻豆直播 employees should be on the lookout for volunteer opportunities with Bryan鈥檚 House and Cookies with Santa in December!
