Bob Reina, Talk Fusion Founder and CEO and Talk Fusion VP of Training & Development, Allison Roberts, have always been committed to helping helpless animals in our area. Now those who cannot speak for themselves have an even more powerful voice. Bob and Allison have both been elected to serve on the Board of The Humane Society of Tampa Bay.

Subscribing to the adage, "with success comes greater responsibility", Bob Reina is a firm believer in giving back. A long-time advocate and supporter of homeless companion animals in Tampa Bay, his generosity, compassion and acts of good will have been lauded in the news time and time again.

Appearing before the Hillsborough County Commissioner's Board, Bob pledged close to a million dollars in support services to help end the senseless suffering and loss of innocent lives. The proud owner of numerous adopted pets himself, Bob has also been repeatedly praised for helping save the lives of countless abandoned, injured, or abused animals in Tampa Bay by selflessly paying for their care and treatment.

In the last two years alone, Bob Reina and Talk Fusion have donated over $300,000 of financial support and marketing services to both Hillsborough County Animal Services and The Humane Society of Tampa Bay.
