Discover how GSA Federal Schedule Consulting firm, Blackfyre, commits to social responsibility through ongoing support of DC Central Kitchen and Wreaths across America.
At Blackfyre, our role as an engaged and committed advocate of GSA Federal Schedule Consulting extends beyond our professional services. We firmly believe in giving back to our community, reflecting our core values and reinforcing our commitment to social responsibility. This Giving Tuesday, we are thrilled to highlight and share the meaningful charitable initiatives we have undertaken.
We've continued our tradition of supporting DC Central Kitchen (DCCK), a laudable organization devoted to combating hunger and creating opportunities in the Washington D.C. community. Just last week, we proudly donated $1,000 to DCCK, a contribution that was generously matched by other supporters. This practice has been in place since 2004, inspired by our founder's earnest desire to assist the organization in meeting its holiday food supply needs. DCCK's commitment to train individuals for culinary careers aligns perfectly with our belief in empowerment through education and skill enhancement.
Back in 2013, we started our journey with Wreaths Across America, a remarkable organization that pays tribute to fallen U.S. veterans by organizing wreath-laying ceremonies at the Arlington National Cemetery and over 1,200 other locations nationwide. We contributed 50 wreaths to the 2018 wreath-laying ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery this year. This heartfelt contribution is a symbol of our ongoing commitment to honor the selfless service and immense sacrifices of our veterans, and their families.
The act of giving back is an integral part of Blackfyre's corporate ethos. As we grow and prosper as a leading GSA schedule consulting firm, we firmly believe in our responsibility to stand by our community and extend support to those who need it. Whether it is combating hunger, honoring veterans, or throwing our weight behind other imperative causes, Blackfyre is steadfastly dedicated to making a positive, tangible impact.
As we take a moment to look back at our contributions during this Giving Tuesday, we extend an invitation to other businesses and individuals. Consider how you can bring about positive changes in your communities. Remember, giving back isn't solely about donating—it's about setting off a ripple effect of compassion, support, and active involvement in communal matters.
We are immensely proud of our contributions to DC Central Kitchen and Wreaths Across America. As we move ahead, we remain committed to finding substantial ways to give back and bolster our communal ties. We encourage everyone to embody the spirit of giving, not just during the holiday season, but all through the year. Reach out to us to learn more about our dedication to social responsibility and how we've woven these values into our work as a trusted GSA schedule consultant. Remember, we are led by a former GSA Schedule Reviewer and provide the best in class GSA Schedule Consulting services.
