🍽️ This Friday on Philanthropy in Phocus with Tommy DiMisa #InTheAttic

We’re planting seeds of purpose and possibility with Steve McDermott, Managing Director of Smile Farms, an organization redefining inclusion through meaningful work opportunities for people with developmental disabilities. 🌱✨


This week, we explore “Harvesting Dignity, Growing Futures.” From his early days at Unilever and PepsiCo to leading strategic impact at Smile Farms, Steve’s journey is rooted in passion, innovation, and purpose. Join us for a conversation about employment, empowerment, and how farms are cultivating more than just crops—they’re cultivating community.


🕙 Tune in Friday, October 24th at 10 AM EST to hear how Smile Farms is transforming lives—one job, one person, one harvest at a time. 🎧
