Moments from recent Elite Cares initiatives that helped surpass $1.4 million in charitable giving.
“We’re proud to continue expanding our impact with the help of like minded organizations trying to make a difference locally and nationally,” said Tom Coffeen, Vice President of Sales at Elite Rewards. “Getting involved in the community has always been a priority for us as an organization, this will continue as we keep expanding our reach”.
Elite believes at its core, businesses have a responsibility to uplift the communities they serve. Whether it’s supporting children in need, advancing medical research, or helping families rebuild, Elite is committed to using its voice, platform and resources to create real, lasting change.
Through Elite’s “You Give, We Give” initiative, Elite has made it part of its mission to align charitable impact with client success. It’s not just about giving, it’s about creating a ripple effect that drives purpose, partnership, and progress.
In 2025, Elite Cares expanded its charitable reach by partnering with several new organizations that align with its mission to create meaningful, lasting community impact—both locally and nationally.
A new significant partnership this year is with Lutheran Services – Florida (LSF). LSF supports vulnerable individuals and families across Florida providing programs focused on education, mental health, housing, and refugee services. As a company headquartered in Tampa, FL, this partnership has allowed Elite to deepen its impact locally. Efforts supported several LSF events including: LSF Annual Pickleball Tournament, LSF Auto Auction and LSF Noodles & Networking Events.
This year Elite has also expanded its efforts nationally, participating in the Believe Ball in New York City, supporting “Believe in a Cure”, an organization dedicated to raising funds and awareness for FOXG1 Syndrome, a rare and severe neurological disorder. Elite’s support generates funding critical for medical research and directly connects the organization with a powerful, mission-driven community.
Elite also joined forces with the “For Others Collective”, an organization dedicated to ending the child welfare crisis in America. Elite participated in their “Vision Gathering”—a multi-day event including a celebrity golf tournament, a live auction, dinner, and concert.
“The impact ‘Elite Cares’ is having is significant and represents Elite’s commitment to the community it serves,” said Coffeen. “We’re even more motivated today to make a difference, knowing an act of love and caring can change the world for an individual or even the whole community”.
Elite Cares’ efforts won’t stop at reaching $1.4 million in donations. We’re proud to continue supporting meaningful causes, both in our local communities and across the country.
