This month, we’re thrilled to recognize Gina Reyes, the powerhouse volunteer who has been instrumental in making our recent events a resounding success. Gina, owner of PC Print Graphics, has gone above and beyond to support UCPIE’s mission, and we couldn’t be more grateful.
Gina’s dedication and creative vision elevated our 34th Annual Bowl-a-Thon and Brunch at the Ritz events in ways we never imagined. For the Bowl-a-Thon, Gina’s contribution went beyond the ordinary. She created trophies for every participating child, helping each of them feel celebrated and valued. She also designed special signs and stickers that added a unique, memorable touch to the day, making it extra special for all who attended.
When it came to our Audrey Hepburn-Inspired Brunch at the Ritz, Gina’s support was truly the backbone of our live auction. After brainstorming the concept, our development team reached out to Gina for guidance, knowing that her expertise would bring our vision to life. Without hesitation, Gina and her team sprang into action, creating all the materials that made the auction possible, from our auction paddles to beautifully crafted brochure and LIVE Auction packet.
But Gina didn’t stop there. She also personally assembled swag box purses filled with perfumes, mints and holiday gift savings. Every detail was thought through, and her attention made our guests feel seen and valued. Her response to any question or concern about the auction was, “Don’t worry, I’ve got you.”
Our kids, our team, and the entire community are profoundly grateful for Gina’s support. She’s our very first highlighted volunteer of the month, kicking off a series that celebrates individuals who make UCPIE events and programs shine. Through this monthly series, we aim to recognize not only the dedication of our volunteers, board members, and advisory team, but to inspire others to join our cause and experience the fulfillment that comes from giving back.
At UCPIE, every volunteer, supporter, and staff member share a common goal: to make the world a better place through community, compassion, and inclusion. Gina’s contributions have enriched us all, and we’re honored to have her in our UCPIE family. Here’s to building a community where everyone belongs, thanks to incredible volunteers like Gina Reyes!
