Spherion giving back to organizations that support a variety of needs in the communities they serve.
The Lima Spherion office donated one thousand dollars to the Prevention Awareness Support Services or PASS. Each of the Spherion offices in our area will be making a $1,000 donation to the organization of their choice. The Lima office picked PASS because of the recent national report saying suicides are the number one cause of young children's deaths. They wanted to support their work with different programs like mental health first aid and Gatekeepers which raises awareness of the issue.
“So we thought it was such a big opportunity to be able to give the thousand dollars to them to reach out to the schools and reach out to our young generation and try and help them out as much as possible,” says Megan Fullenkamp the Regional Marketing Coordinator for Spherion.
“Of course as a non-profit organization we thrive on the donations and support of the community, we are not actively seeking donations, but it always nice to be recognized for the good work we're doing in the community,” added Rick Skilliter the Ex. Dir. PASS. “We are going to be able to put that money to continued good use of our programming.”
