The philanthropic arm of SIS delivered over 800 presents to under-resourced children and youth throughout the U.S.
Alpharetta, GA – December 28, 2021 – Surgical Information Systems (SIS), an industry leader focused exclusively on delivering surgical information technology (IT) to ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs) and hospitals, is pleased to announce the success that its philanthropic arm, SIS Cares’, Making Spirits Bright campaign had this holiday season.
In association with the digital giving platform, Daymaker, SIS associates accessed a unique company webpage where they were able to view the profiles of children based on their local city, learn about their interests and aspirations, and shop their tailored wish lists.
Within the first 24 hours of the campaign, SIS surpassed the original goal of 100 gifts given. Donations quickly continued to increase past the second goal of 200 gifts and by the end of the campaign, with SIS matching donations, 806 gifts were purchased for children across the U.S.
Daymaker is a compassion platform that partners with high-impact 501c3 nonprofit organizations working in communities facing systemic and persistent challenges. Their nonprofit partners provide descriptions, needs, and interests of the children they serve on a day-to-day basis, and Daymaker takes that information and creates profiles for each child on their website – including a uniquely-tailored wish list that donors can shop from. The purchased gifts are delivered to the children and include messages of support and encouragement.
“We are pleased to have the opportunity to participate in such an impactful campaign,” said Tom Stampiglia, SIS Chief Executive Officer. “The commitment to spreading joy to so many amazing children is one that is shared across our company. I continue to be impressed by the generosity of our associates.”
SIS Cares started in January 2014 with "SIS Cares Day of Service," a single-day event where SIS associates volunteered at one of several charities in the Atlanta area, home to SIS’s headquarters. Now, SIS associates can take one day off per year to volunteer at the charity of their choice as well as participate in charity drives throughout the year.
