Kip Hollister, CEO and Founder of Boston-based staffing firm, Hollister, participated in the Ripples of Hope service projects on June 28 and 29 that supported three local nonprofits: the Pine Street Inn, Rosie’s Place and the Tobin community Center in Dorchester.
“What I enjoyed most about [Ripples of Hope] was being able to share in a meaningful experience with my family,” explained Kip Hollister. “In working side-by-side with other local families, my family and I witnessed firsthand the invaluable services and feeling of togetherness the organization brings to our community.“
Hollister and her family served the Pine Street Inn and the Tobin Community Center in Dorchester, planting flowers and constructing benches for the community, while interacting with other families participating in the Ripples of Hope weekend.
Hollister has incorporated philanthropy into her company’s mission, partnering with local non-profits, but has also committed to social outreach on a personal level.
