At Bulletin Brands, the holiday season is not just about celebrating with loved ones and spreading cheer; it’s also about giving back to the communities that mean the most to us. Every year, we proudly donate $250 to a charity of each employee’s choosing, empowering our team to support causes close to their hearts. This initiative reflects our commitment to making a positive impact beyond our business.
Here are the charities our team chose to support this year!
Suzette: Preble Street
Preble Street is a Portland-based organization working tirelessly to combat homelessness and hunger while advocating for social justice. Their comprehensive services provide life-changing resources,
including food programs, shelters, and advocacy initiatives. Suzette’s choice ensures that those facing challenging times have access to vital support during the holidays and beyond. Learn more about their mission here.
Jennifer: The South Portland Holiday Toy Drive
Jennifer selected The South Portland Holiday Toy Drive, a community initiative she’s deeply involved in. Reflecting on her second year on the board, she shared:
“This is my second year on the board, and during my tenure, we have seen a drastic increase in need. We have 387 kids and teens to help this year, which represents more than 12% of students in our
district. The need is great, and we can’t do it without the very generous help from our community businesses and residents. The Toy Drive hopes to ease some stress from parents and caretakers this holiday season by gifting kids and teens with a winter coat, boots, and items from a wish list from adopters. The funds we raise as an organization cover the costs of ensuring the same amongst the kids who do not get adopted. These funds will go a long way towards making the holidays brighter for the kids in South Portland.”
Ben: The Center for Grieving Children in Portland
Ben chose The Center for Grieving Children, an incredible organization that provides a safe space and supportive programs for children, teens, and families navigating grief and loss. Their compassionate
approach helps build resilience and hope for brighter days. To learn more about their services, visit here.
Ashley: St. Peter’s Kitchen
Ashley directed her donation to St. Peter’s Kitchen, a community resource dedicated to addressing food insecurity in Rochester, NY. With a focus on dignity and compassion, this organization provides meals, pantry services, and outreach programs to support their community members in need. Find out more about their work here.
This initiative is one of the many ways Bulletin Brands strives to give back. We’re grateful for the opportunity to help make a difference in our communities and inspired by our team’s dedication to causes that matter deeply.
As we celebrate this season of giving, we encourage everyone to consider how they, too, can give back. Whether through time, resources, or advocacy, every effort makes an impact.
Happy holidays from all of us at Bulletin Brands!
