SHRM Kansas is pleased to announce that our 2025 Community Partner during Annual Conference will be The Golden Scoop! This year’s theme is HR Game Changers and The Golden Scoop is certainly a Game Changer when it comes to employing individuals with unique abilities. The Golden Scoop’s mission is to provide meaningful employment for people with developmental disabilities; to foster an environment where our employees are mentored, inspired, and equipped to succeed in their jobs and their lives; to offer amazing made-from-scratch products; and to provide an inclusive, joyful customer experience that keeps people coming back for another scoop. More details on how you can support The Golden Scoop coming soon! Until then check out their website and be sure to attend the Vendor Farewell on Thursday September 18th where The Golden Scoop employees will be in the exhibit hall providing samples of their products.
It takes a crew to pull off the conference and we have plenty of volunteer opportunities available. Everyone who signs up and completes 3 or more volunteer slots will receive an appreciation gift!
