OFFIX, LC (Gainesville) Delivers Thanksgiving Basket Donations to Local Schools for Students with Food Insecurity
Gainesville, VA – November 21: Offix, LC is pleased to be able to once again provide a donation to local schools in the areas surrounding each of their offices. This time the goal is to help those students suffering with food insecurity during the Thanksgiving holiday.
On November 21, 2023, Offix staff members delivered baskets with non-perishable food items to (5) Loch Lomond Elementary School, 7900 Augusta Road, Manassas, VA. Offix also delivered baskets to (5) Marshall Middle School 4048 Zulla Road, The Plains, VA on Tuesday, November 20. In addition to these local donations, Offix three other satellite offices in Norfolk, Richmond and Lynchburg also delivered five baskets each, to their local partner schools: Coleman Place Elementary School (Norfolk, VA), McClenney Elementary School (Richmond, VA) and Heritage Elementary School (Lynchburg, VA). Of these schools, four are designated as Title 1 schools, meaning that a large portion of their students are from economically disadvantaged families.
The baskets were complete with all the ‘fixins’ for a classic Thanksgiving meal, less the turkey which was substituted with an exclusive gift card that can be redeemed at their local Walmart for a turkey, ham or fresh produce to complete their meal. While this alone would be enough for those familiar with food insecurity, Offix caring staff members also enthusiastically stepped up to make their own contributions, by donating things they typically have at their own family Thanksgiving meals. These items were added to the baskets for the larger families. The baskets were packed with love and delivered by the employees of each of the Offix offices. Thanks to their collective efforts, in total, baskets were furnished for 25 families, providing meals for 139 people this holiday season.
Offix firmly believes in the importance of businesses being active members of the community and they look forward to continuing their support in areas surrounding their offices in 2024.
