Fierce Females in Package Printing: Lori Campbell — Leveraging Diversity of Thought for Future Success
Campbell: I thought about this question a lot because I wanted to share something personal. I’m at the height of my career, so I wanted to share something that I want to give more to at the end game of my career. I’m still in that mode of looking for that.
I have started to get involved with the local food banks, and then, at least from a monetary standpoint, The World Food Bank. To think that in this country, we have kids that get their only meals at school. It’s ridiculous that we have people hungry in this country! That’s not acceptable.
I’m also passionate about animal welfare, but I haven’t been able to separate my heart enough to be able to work for an adoption or rescue type of organization. It’s too painful, so I support that cause monetarily. I’m in awe of people who work in animal welfare and yet not be heartbroken all the time. I don’t have that ability, so I support their work.
