A Little Friendly Competition

During the holidays, donations can have a huge impact.  Food pantries, churches and other non-profit organizations are inundated with requests, and kids are not in school for an extended period – lengthening the list of those in need. A December holiday food drive is a great time to give! To promote our efforts our offices in Cleveland and Columbus are competing to see who can collect the most food. The winning office will enjoy lunch, and the winning team member will also get three additional vacation days.

Donations will be taken to United Way of Lake County and United Way of Central Ohio and distributed from there!

Thank you for helping us fight hunger this holiday season!
