CLEVELAND, Ohio – March 28, 2024— Employees from GMS’ headquarters in Richfield, Ohio, volunteered at the Greater Cleveland Food Bank. They spent the morning preparing and packing hot meals at their Coit Road Partner Distribution Hub that will be given to those in need around the Greater Cleveland area. In 2023, over 12,500 volunteers contributed over 89,000 hours of service to the Food Bank, a savings of over $2.5 million in salaries and benefits, allowing for additional food to be provided to agencies and clients.
