About Alex

​​Alex is the Founder and CEO of Mission Impact Strategies, where he and his network of

seasoned advisors help organizations across all sectors solve big challenges in their areas of

expertise: community and government affairs, philanthropy strategy, and public relations.

His passion for this mission builds on a life’s work of committing to critical issues and growing

influential movements around them. As National Director of Community Investment at

Office Depot, he created and launched Start Proud!® in 2018, the nation’s largest

back-to-school charitable program. In response to the racial equity crisis of 2020, Alex created

Elevate Together®, an award-winning national program aimed at empowering and growing Black and Hispanic small businesses.

​

Alex’s standing as a world-class speaker, communicator and strategist was seeded at Columbia University where he earned a Master’s Degree in Strategic Communications with highest honors. His storytelling prowess was honed over time as the head community and public relations leader for large companies including ADT, Comcast, Office Depot, and most recently as VP of Community Impact at Burlington Stores, Inc. representing 60,000 associates nationwide.

​

Alex’s greatest passion, however, is family. He and his beautiful wife, Jessie, love raising their four children and getting them involved early on in the causes that matter to them most.

Alex Price is one of Florida’s most recognized and accomplished community leaders and change-makers. Throughout his 20 years leading philanthropy and community relations for Fortune 500 companies, he’s lived out a belief that transformational impact is possible when key people are engaged through powerful storytelling, inspiring them to align and take action.  Today he leverages this proven formula to lead a new mission-driven body of work to drive social impact across the Sunshine State.​
