In Our Communities
Resurgent Capital Services L.P. (“Resurgent”) employees contribute to our communities by giving their time and money to several charitable organizations. In 2006 the Resurgent Humanitarian Council was formed for the express purpose of overseeing the charitable giving and volunteer efforts of the employees of Resurgent in Greenville. In Cincinnati, the Community Action Council was formed for the same purpose. Through these two committees we have been able to expand the scope of our volunteer efforts through organizations such as Meals on Wheels, Habitat for Humanity, Metropolitan Arts Council, Hands On Greenville, the Susan G. Komen Foundation and Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation to name a few.
Member of the Better Business Bureau:
Resurgent is a member of the Better Business Bureau of Upstate South Carolina.
Habitat For Humanity

Habitat for Humanity:

For over 25 years, Habitat for Humanity has helped low-income families achieve their dreams of having a place to call home. Through volunteer labor, donations of money and help of the homeowner, partner families, local corporations, and many volunteers, Habitat for Humanity is able to assist in making these dreams come true. Habitat houses are sold to the families at no profit and financed with affordable, no-interest loans. The homeowners' monthly mortgage payments are used to build even more Habitat houses.

Hundreds of Resurgent employees have come together since 2003 to help build homes through a partnership with Habitat for Humanity. By giving their time, energy, and talent they have built three homes, complete with landscaping, in Travelers Rest and Greenville, South Carolina. Resurgent generously contributes the cost of the materials to build the homes and through various fundraising efforts by the Humanitarian Council we have been able to equip the homes with essentials such as appliances, ceiling fans, household goods, microwaves, cookware, linens and non-perishable food items.

 We look forward to building our next home in 2009!

United Way

United Way:

Resurgent began an aggressive fund-raising campaign in 2007 for The United Way of Greenville, setting a goal of $61,659.40.  As a Pacesetter, Resurgent ran its workplace campaign early, to get the Greenville campaign off to a running start and to challenge other companies to participate in workplace campaigns.  However, it wasn’t all work and no play; fundraising events included a carnival, ping-pong tournament, prizes, and incentives which helped to garner an unprecedented amount of employee pledges.  The hard work of the 2007 Campaign Team coupled with generous giving and genuine employee dedication shattered the goal, raising a total of $72,238.83.  Although Resurgent received 4 awards for its excellent service and fund-raising success, the greatest reward was knowing that a positive impact was made on the lives of residents in the Greenville community.

Hands On Greenville

Meals on Wheels: 

Resurgent Capital Services has partnered with Meals on Wheels of Greenville to enhance the quality of life of homebound individuals by providing nutritious meals, personal contact, and related services. Nearly 30 employees volunteer their time every week to deliver meals to individuals living in Greenville.  Although Resurgent is only one of many corporate partners, the lives touched are individual, and each delivery is a unique expression of Resurgent’s ability and desire to make a difference.

Metropolitan Arts Council:
For over 35 years, MAC has enriched the community through the sponsorship and promotion of diverse arts, activities, and events – as the funding source for area arts organizations, individual artists, and arts educators. MAC also partners with Greenville County schools to bring SmartArts initiatives to students, which uses art to reinforce curriculum. MAC focuses its efforts to:

•  

Develop a child's critical thinking, raise his or her academic achievement, and build a child's self-esteem

•  

Unite families through shared activities

•  

Provide local jobs as patrons cultivate and indulge their desire for the arts

•  

Encourage economic growth by drawing new fans to the area who want to raise families and grow businesses here by making Greenville an ideal place for companies to open and/or relocate

Resurgent has won MAC’s “Most Creative Fundraiser Campaign” award multiple times and is proud to be MAC’s largest corporate contributor in Greenville County. Resurgent’s ongoing partnership with MAC alters the outcomes of our children and the makeup of our great city and it is a partnership that we are all very proud of! 
 
Bikes for Kids:  
Resurgent biannually sponsors a Bikes for Kids program. It benefits children in need of a "special" gift during the holidays. Rather than exchanging holiday gifts, Resurgent and our network of supporting agencies and attorneys make donations to the Bikes for Kids program. Our 2006 Bikes for Kids program entailed the purchase and assembly of 1,000 bikes for delivery to children in need living in the Greenville community. Dozens of employees volunteered by learning how to put together a bicycle or participating in their delivery.

Adopt a Child for Christmas and Toys for Tots:

Each Christmas season, Greenville employees fulfill the hopes and dreams of nearly 100 children and their families by supplying gifts that otherwise may not be received. In 2007 we added the Adopt a Soldier program and were able to send care packages with personalized notes to more than 30 soldiers serving in Iraq and Afghanistan.  These programs are supported solely by the donations from our Resurgent employees who ‘adopt’ a child or a family and then work together to fill the ‘wish list’ that we have received from the agencies that we partner with each year. We have had the opportunity to play Santa each year through our involvement with Safe Harbor, Center for Developmental Services (CDS), New Foundations, Greenville Area Interfaith Hospitality Network, and Church of God Children's Home. In most instances, our gifts are given to children ranging from 3 -18 years of age.

Employees in our Sioux Falls site work with the Salvation Army Angel Tree program to sponsor children by shopping for gifts on their wish list.

Necco: 
Necco is a private childcare agency dedicated to improving the quality of life for children.  Their 40 years of experience ensures the children we help receive everything they deserve.   They serve abused and neglected children of all ages in the custody of child welfare and juvenile justice agencies in the states of Kentucky, Ohio, and West Virginia.   For several years Necco has placed a ‘giving tree’ on-site at the Resurgent office and employees take a gift tag and provide a holiday gift to a child in need.   Each year there has been an overwhelming response from the employees usually requiring that the tree be restocked with tags during the event.

 

Ronald McDonald House:
Ronald McDonald House Charities of Greater Cincinnati provides a supportive ‘home away from home’ for families and their children from all over the world who are receiving treatment at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center or other area hospitals, regardless of their ability to pay.

The House provides a comfortable place where families can sleep, eat home-cooked meals, and meet others facing similar situations and offer support to one another during difficult times. It is supported by generous individuals, McDonald's owner/operators, local businesses, civic groups, foundations, and a large, caring group of volunteers.

Since 2005, Resurgent’s IT group has had the pleasure of providing and serving meals to those staying at the Ronald McDonald House.   The team provides an average of 3 meals yearly which gives those staying at the facility a good meal without having to leave the premises. Many recipients have wonderful things to say about our efforts and we enjoy the chance to give back to the community!

 

Stepping Stones Center:
The mission of Stepping Stones Center in Cincinnati is to provide opportunities for children and adults of all ages with disabilities.  The organization seeks to increase participant’s independence and promote inclusion within the community.

Stepping Stones Center is a non-profit United Way agency that serves over 1,100 persons with disabilities each year.

For several years the Resurgent Information Technology group has been a primary sponsor of the annual Independence Day Picnic at Stepping Stones.  This involves decorating the picnic area, providing the food for the picnic, assisting with the cooking, and serving the meal.  The staff, campers, and their families have always been most appreciative of our contribution to making the picnic successful.   We’ve repeatedly received comments that the picnic is the best one ever.

Episcopal Retirement Centers (ERH):
ERH is a Cincinnati, Ohio based not-for-profit organization that owns and manages several retirement communities in the area. They are dedicated to providing services for individuals of varying economic circumstances, and without regard to ethnic origin or religious affiliation.

Resurgent is involved in an annual fundraiser entitled ‘Sentimental Journey.’ This event raises money to support ERH programs and provide assistance to residents who need help remaining in their retirement community. The Resurgent employees serve as wine stewards, raffle monitors, and greeters for those participating in this event. Resurgent volunteers have garnered high praise for their efforts from the staff, clients, and participants in the event.

Matthew 25:
Matthew 25: Ministries is an international humanitarian relief organization helping the poorest of the poor locally, regionally, nationally, and internationally regardless of race, creed, or political persuasion. By rescuing and reusing products from major corporations, manufacturers and individuals, Matthew 25: Ministries provides basic necessities, skill development and disaster relief across the US and worldwide. Resurgent employees have assisted in these efforts by volunteering to sort clothing and pack boxes which are shipped to areas in need.

Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure Cincinnati:
Breast cancer is not predictable - it is a random disease.  It knows no boundaries - age, race, religion, socioeconomic status, or geography. The Komen Foundation is leading the fight against breast cancer through its advancement of research, education, screening, and treatment.  Through its aggressive, full-scope mission, the Komen Foundation is committed to meeting the needs of women, men and families facing breast cancer today, as well as investing in a cure for future generations.

Several Greenville and Cincinnati employees participated in the annual Race for the Cure in 2007

Project Supply One Student:
Sioux Falls employees participate in this annual event by donating school supplies for distribution to students who may need a little assistance getting ready for the new school year.
