KANSAS CITY, Mo. (Aug. 6, 2024) – Proforma, the largest family-owned and operated distributor in the print and promotional products industry, demonstrated its commitment to social responsibility and empowerment through its Women's Session during its Annual Convention and Family Reunion. Partnering with the Rose Brooks Center, a non-profit dedicated to ending domestic violence, Proforma facilitated an impactful session aimed at empowering survivors and raising awareness.

Jennifer Herrera, Distributor Owner of A&G Marketing Powered by Proforma, expressed her appreciation for the session and its impact on the community.
