Proforma Honors Social Responsibility Through Third-Annual “Proform-A-Service" Day
TAMPA, Fla. (Feb. 4, 2024) – Proforma, the largest family-owned and operated distributor in the print and promotional products industry, recently hosted its third-annual "Proform-A-Service" Day, where Support Center Team Members dedicate time to giving back to their local communities. While employees have the flexibility to choose a workday throughout January or February, many chose to participate in acts of service on Monday, January 20 in honor of Martin Luther King Jr. Day.
This annual initiative underscores Proforma’s dedication to social responsibility and community involvement. Team Members engaged in individual and team-organized volunteer efforts including fostering hope and connection through supportive gatherings for individuals in correctional facilities, collecting coats and blankets for the Salvation Army Coat Drive, packing bags with essentials to provide to the homeless, and preparing and serving hot meals for nearly 200 individuals at a local soup kitchen.
“At Proforma, we believe there’s no better way to honor the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. than through acts of service that uplift our communities,” said Vanessa Edwards, Director of Business Development. “Dr. King’s dedication to justice, equality, and service inspires us to take meaningful action that truly makes a difference for those in need.”
As part of its ongoing dedication to social responsibility, Proforma is empowering its Support Center Team Members to actively participate in volunteer activities that hold personal meaning to them. Through this initiative, Proforma aims to foster a deeper, more personal connection to its core values of community support and giving back – making a meaningful difference, both within its organization and the communities it serves.
“Our ‘Proform-A-Service' Day has become very near and dear to our hearts as an organization,” added Kathy Mayo, Director of Human Resources. “I am honored to play a part in facilitating this initiative year-over-year. Our Network is deeply committed to cultivating a culture that strives to make the world a better place – and we hope this inspires others to become more involved in their communities, as well.”
