The DCC team, from L to R: Emma Gross, Breyana Franklin, Peter Morscheck, and Marsha Smith

Like most holidays, Thanksgiving should be practiced every day. And not just because it’s the right thing to do; scientists have even documented a variety of powerful health benefits from adopting an attitude of gratitude.

In that spirit, Team DCC recently hosted its annual Clients and Friends Appreciation Party. The timing of this party – right before Thanksgiving – is part of the message. In a season of giving thanks, we invited our clients, colleagues, and friends to my home to enjoy some delicious food and drink, and to express our deep appreciation for their business and support.

We’re also grateful for the opportunity to support our clients’ causes, including developing a more skilled workforce, improving emergency communications, inspiring bipartisanship in public policy-making, and closing the digital divide in rural America.

Thanks to our friend Judith Hernandez for providing the delicious catering and bountiful leftovers! 

I also want to thank the members of the extended DCC team – especially our Director of Operations, Marsha Smith, and my fiancé, Lamar Braithwaite, but also Peter Morscheck, Breyana Franklin, and Emma Gross – for their efforts in planning this party.

So one more time: Thank you to all of our clients, colleagues, friends and family for everything you have done over the last seven years to support our endeavors. We wouldn’t be here without you, and we look forward to serving you further in the years ahead.
