Support our Community Program
Independent Security Advisors and our training division are once again honored to announce the ISA Support our Community Program has, on behalf of the graduates, instructors, and cadre of EP class 008-2024 selected Shriners Children’s Hospitals to support this month.
As with every ISA training program, a portion of the tuition and the primary instructor’s salary is given to support a local charitable program in the name of the students, cadre, guests, and role players. The graduates, hosting agencies, and sponsors are asked to select those charities.
This class was hosted and coordinated by Mr. Joe Doa, the MGM’s Vice President of Security and Regional Operations, and Alfonso Gallegos of the MGM security team. And supported by Percel O. Alston Jr. the Chair / Assistant Professor for the Public Safety and Law Department of the Prince George’s Community College
Who to help then?
Since we had students from multiple states for this class, we selected the Shriners Hospitals for Children for this program. A pediatric healthcare system that provides specialty care, research, and educational programs from hospitals across the United States.
The Shriners Hospitals for Children uses around 80% of its annual funds on patient care, research, and education. In addition, Shriners Children’s is a fully qualified 501 (c)3 charitable organization under IRS regulations.
Independent Charities Seal of Excellence
Shriners Children’s is the recipient of the Independent Charities Seal of Excellence. This designation is awarded to the members of Independent Charities of America and Local Independent Charities of America that have, upon rigorous independent review, been able to certify, document, and demonstrate on an annual basis that they meet the highest standards of public accountability, program effectiveness, and cost-effectiveness.
The Services they Provide
Burn Care; Colorectal & Gastrointestinal (GI); Craniofacial; Orthopedics; Pediatric Rehabilitation and Therapy; Pediatric Surgery; Rheumatology; Scoliosis; Spine & Spinal Cord; Sports Medicine; Urology; Wound Care & Skin Disorders.
ISA will continue this program through 2024 and we look forward to the next EP training program.
