Charitable Donations 2019 — A Year in Review

As another year comes to an end and we reflect on everything we have accomplished, it is giving back to the community that Global Finishing Solutions (GFS) truly values. We appreciate all of the employees who prioritize it in their busy schedules, especially this time of year. GFS is dedicated to assisting our employees in their charitable efforts, as well as contributing to many local causes and organizations.

At GFS, an internal committee called Charitable Donations handles all of GFS’ charitable contributions throughout the year. This committee is in charge of distributing educational scholarships, monetary donations and custom-made fire rings for various community events, fundraisers, silent auctions and more. GFS is proud to support the surrounding communities and the people who live in them through these channels.
