Charitable Contributions: WorkflowOne Foundation Awards Grants To Ohio Nonprofits

Issue: 2010jan

Dayton, Ohio-based distributor WorkflowOne (UPIC: SF00001) awarded grants to a variety of nonprofit organizations in the Dayton community through the generosity of WorkflowOne’s local workforce in 2009 through its employee foundation. Among grants given to local organizations from 2009 payroll deductions and the company match are:

    A Special Wish Foundation - $3,500 for general support
    Prevent Blindness Ohio - $3,500 for vision screenings of youth aged 15 to 21
    Womanline - $2,500 for its “I Can Tell” training program to identify sexual abuse
    Ronald McDonald House - $2,000 for equipment for nursing mothers
    Children’s Medical Center - $3,000 for specialized bottles to feed infants with cleft palates
    Hospice of Dayton - $2,000 to support its Healing Pathways grief counseling program for children
    Clothes That Work - $1,500 for general support


Additionally, WorkflowOne partnered with Appleton Papers Inc. and Goodwill Easter Seals Miami Valley in 2009 to make an in-kind donation of sheeted paper for Crayons to Classrooms, a resource center for teachers from under-funded schools serving children who live in poverty. The finished paper products are available to teachers from qualifying and registered schools who can “shop” for free.

“We’re extremely grateful for the combined donation from WorkflowOne, Appleton Papers and Goodwill Easter Seals Miami Valley,” says Steve Rubenstein, executive director of Crayons to Classrooms. “This is a great example of local organizations working collaboratively to help solve a community problem. Many Dayton area schoolchildren who currently do not have writing and drawing paper will benefit from this partnership.”

The WorkflowOne Employee Foundation is an independent 501(c)3 organization that is funded by financial contributions from employees of Dayton-based WorkflowOne, a leading provider of print management, marketing and distribution services. The foundation has given more than $750,000 to local nonprofits since its inception in 2000.
