Community Spotlight: Mark and Jean Miller

Meet Mark and Jean Miller! They’ve been Apparo donors since 2016 and a part of the Apparo community in myriad ways beyond that. Recently, they have generously funded our work with:

• Dress for Success Charlotte – Read more about how Dress for Success Charlotte maintained full services during the pandemic and grew its reach because of this support.
• The Epiphany School – Read more about the support Epiphany leadership called “transformational” to their school.
• 100 Gardens – Read more about how 100 Gardens tripled their fundraising, thanks to this support.

As they share in the video above (shot at our 2019 Community Impact Breakfast), they both appreciate Apparo from differing viewpoints. Mark has served on our Board of Directors since 2017 and volunteered his consulting expertise through Mission Possible (The Economic Opportunity Award) since 2018, and is a firm believer of the value Apparo brings to the community from a business perspective. Jean is the author of CONFIDENT in the KITCHEN and President and Founder of local nonprofit Read a Book, Earn a Book, and has experienced first-hand the benefits of Apparo from the nonprofit perspective. This husband-wife duo actively brings strategic opportunities to life for Apparo, building collaboration between nonprofits, corporations, and individual donors. Mark and Jean believe fostering connections is vital to building a stronger community. If you haven’t met them yet, try and do so at an upcoming event! Mark and Jean, thank you for all you do for the community! We are grateful that you are a part of the Apparo family.
