Bowling Green, Ohio, December 6, 2011 – CMC Group, Inc., an international printing company headquartered in Bowling Green, OH is happy to announce a major milestone has been reached in its’ charitable giving program. Through the Giving at Heart Foundation, $300,000 in donations has been made to local, national, and international charities since 2006.
CMC Group Giving at Heart serves as a model to employees to give back to people in need. Through the voluntary Payroll Deduction Program, employees of CMC Group have the opportunity to automatically donate a portion of each paycheck to the CMC Group Giving at Heart. CMC Group, Inc. will match each employee donation dollar for dollar.
"It’s so exciting to see the impact that giving can make. It’s amazing to think of all the employees, organizations, and charities that we’ve been able to help in the last 5 years. I can’t wait to see the kind of impact we can make in the next 5 years!" says Samantha Hamman, Payroll Administrator and new Giving at Heart Committee Member. "I was very happy to be chosen to serve on the committee for the next couple of years. As an employee it is great to give each week and know that it is helping people, but being directly involved in the process and choosing where to allocate the money is even better! It is very rewarding to be able to fill a need for an employee during their time of struggle. We never know who we’re helping, but we know what it means to them!"
"The spirit and joy of giving," says Craig Magrum, Chairman of the Giving at Heart Committee, "is going strong at the CMC Group of companies. We’re kicking off the ‘Dollar Drive’ for 2012 to encourage more of our team to give and experience the blessing of giving without expecting anything back."
The Committee is ambitiously aiming for 100% giving participation for 2012, and looks to increase the amount of charitable gifts given for the year.
