The PrideStaff Companies Celebrate the Spirit of the Holidays with a Generous Gift to Local Family

December 14, 2023

Continuing its long tradition of giving back to the local community through its Spirit of the Holidays Program, The PrideStaff Companies gifted $1,000 to a family in need.

The Spirit of the Holidays Program was created and launched over 27 years ago by George Rogers, the founder of PrideStaff, who wanted individuals to come together to give anonymously to families in need. Each year, the PrideStaff Spirit of the Holidays Committee, comprised entirely of volunteers, works with Valley Children’s Hospital to select a family whose child has been ill. Funds raised are donated anonymously to the chosen family during the holiday season.

This year, The PrideStaff Companies raised $1,000 in the form of gift cards, the most that has been collected since the program’s inception. This generous gift is intended to lift the spirits and brighten the holidays for a family struggling with illness.

Tammi Heaton, Co-CEO of PrideStaff, is proud of the phenomenal generosity of the team this year. “Helping people in the communities we serve is central to our company culture. The PrideStaff Companies offer many opportunities for associates, clients, and internal team members to give back, such as this year’s successful canned food drive benefiting the Fresno Mission,” stated Heaton. “Our Spirit of the Holidays Program is one more way to make a direct, immediate impact on a family in our community.

“The Valley Children’s Hospital does heroic work, and we are thrilled to partner with them to brighten the holiday for a child and their family. We are grateful to every team member who made a contribution—and we’re proud to give back to our community this holiday season and always.”

“It is Valley Children’s mission—each and every day—to help children heal and to care for their families, as well,” said Valley Children’s Social Work Manager Maria L. Gutierrez. “Our team is honored to organize this Spirit of the Holidays event each holiday season and to see our internal teams and external partners come together to support our patients and families in need truly touches my heart. We are extremely grateful for PrideStaff’s generosity over the years and hope we can continue to partner with their generous employees for many years to come.”
