CARROLLTON, Texas, Oct. 9, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- FASTSIGNS
International, Inc. was recently recognized in the annual
International Franchise Association (IFA) Franchising Gives Back
Initiative during the Franchising Gives Back Celebration and Award
Dinner. Through Franchising Gives Back, the IFA recognizes members
who have given back to their communities in both large and small
ways, seeking out the most innovative community support and
charitable programs, and then sharing those practices with the
entire franchise community through an annual awards program.
Every day in communities around the world, franchise businesses
are finding ways to give back, and Franchising Gives Back provides
a platform to share these stories.
"FASTSIGNS franchisees contribute to their local communities by
providing sign and visual graphics that help brands communicate
their message, being an employer of choice, serving on committees
and actively supporting charitable organizations," said
Catherine Monson, CEO at FASTSIGNS
International, Inc. "Our franchisees know that giving back is a key
component of their success, and we are proud to support them in
their endeavors."
FASTSIGNS submitted entries into several categories including
the Spirit of Franchising and the Support our Veterans categories.
Throughout 2018, FASTSIGNS franchisees have supported a wide
variety of organizations including food banks, veteran's
initiatives, children's advocacy groups, educational scholarships,
health events and more.
FASTSIGNS International, Inc. believes that making a difference
begins in the local community, and the FASTSIGNS® Cares
philanthropic initiative was launched in 2016 to encourage
franchisees' efforts to give back.
"We love sharing the stories of FASTSIGNS franchisees giving
back in their local communities," said Deryl Cason, Senior Marketing Project Manager.
"As active business leaders, they continue to generate goodwill in
a myriad of ways."
