“The Charity Coalition is all about working together,” said Dylan Pires, Community Affairs Director for the Church of Scientology. “We aren’t going to fix the world by just doing our own individual things. Together we can get a lot more accomplished in less time.”

“Scientology Founder, L. Ron Hubbard, said, ‘A community that pulls together can make a better society for all,’” said Mr. Pires.

The Charity Coalition has been actively creating partnerships and community collaboration for three years. Since that time, it has grown from 38 participating non-profit organizations to over 200.

The events have provided a platform for non-profits and charities to network and get valuable information on how to expand. The bi-monthly luncheons present educational sessions by experts in various fields including marketing, organization management, public relations and getting your message out.
