June 6, 2008 was one of the hottest days of the year with temperatures reaching the high 80’s! That didn’t stop 450 Deloitte employees from participating in IMPACT day, a day–long celebration of the company’s year-round commitment to workplace volunteering. This year’s IMPACT Day projects included landscaping, painting, preparing and serving meals, playing games and spending time with seniors, facilitating financial literacy and leadership activities with students, building a park gazebo, and more! Deloitte employees served 14 local nonprofit agencies, most located in the North Side, including: Pittsburgh Parks Conservancy; World Vision; Oliver High School; Rooney Middle School; MLK Elementary School; Pressley Street High Rise; Gwen’s Girls; The Pittsburgh Project; North Side YMCA; PA Cleanways / Friends of the Riverfront; The National Aviary, Light of Life Rescue Mission; Western PA Humane Society; and, Northview Family Support Center. Across the nation, Deloitte ran 600 community service projects in more than 70 cities, with about 35,000 of Deloitte’s 40,000 U.S. employees taking part. IMPACT Day is felt throughout the year through Deloitte’s skills-based volunteerism, pro bono, nonprofit board service, capacity-building philanthropy and thought leadership on corporate community involvement. Thank you to Deloitte for being at the forefront of volunteerism in the communities where employees live and work!
Best Buy West Mifflin is making a huge impact in their community in 2008! Most recently, employees donated a complete Easter meal and Easter baskets to a family of five in need through the Rainbow Kitchen. Additional volunteers held a very special Easter party at Auberle’s shelter for children. The children enjoyed games, a craft, dying Easter Eggs, and of course, a plethora of candy! Since January, the team from Best Buy West Mifflin has performed nearly 50 hours of service, collected over 200 pounds of food for South Hill Interfaith Ministries’ food pantry and shared a Best Buy friends and family discount with the entire Pittsburgh Cares network. Best Buy West Mifflin is going full speed ahead with their commitment to service and hopes to complete three projects a month.
