“It truly is a gift to be a part of an organization that values giving back. “The chance to positively impact the lives of those within their local communities is a unique attribute to SMG, and one that new team members consistently identify as a key factor during their employment search.” “Team members have always been involved in their communities, lending hands to voluntarily support programs that mattered to them,” said Jenna Patrick, vice president of human resources at Studio Movie Grill. We remain true to that tenet and have now expanded the Special Needs Screenings Program to align these two legacy outreach efforts for good,” said Ted Low, SMG’s vice president of brand and marketing. “When we launched SMG Access in 2018, it was the only theater loyalty program that had a ‘get-give’ component.
Best Buddies and their families nationwide were invited to celebrate and watch the screening at their local SMG location.
SMG most recently added a Special Needs Screening of Champions during the film’s opening weekend and reached out nationally to Best Buddies, whose Global and State Ambassadors appear as stars in the movie. Along with the support of SMG Guests, SMG Access now affords free tickets to all Special Needs Screening Guests. SMG has also made changes to its loyalty program SMG Access. For the seventh year, SMG has also announced a partnership with Autism Speaks in a month-long culinary offering, with a percentage of proceeds going to support the non-profit for World Autism Month. This year, all salaried field management, area directors and home office team members will be offered paid time off to volunteer with Feeding America or one of its affiliate programs. The children participating have often never attended a movie or been to a movie theater.īeginning in 2023, SMG has announced that it will be supporting the largest hunger-relief organization in the United States, Feeding America. This past year, SMG Teams presented adaptive bikes to children in California and Texas while welcoming the child’s therapy center to a Special Needs Screening. Additionally, when opening a new location, SMG regularly partners with Variety, the Children’s Charity to present an adaptive bicycle to a child in need. Since that time, SMG has shared the magic of the movies by hosting a Special Needs Screening featuring a new release title with unique screening considerations. From that conversation an idea was born and SMG created its Special Needs Screenings Program.
Back in 2003, an SMG General Manager, and the father of a child with special needs, expressed apprehension when attending a movie with his whole family. Since its inception, Studio Movie Grill (SMG) has remained committed to community service and outreach in its cities and neighborhood.
