HireLevel Gives Back To Local St. Louis Charity Something Bigger Than Yourself
Jun 30, 2016
(July 1, 2016 – St. Louis, Mo.) Giving back to the local community is something that HireLevel, one of the region’s largest women-owned employment, payroll, and workforce services companies, helps bring awareness to with the help of their newly established employee program. The companies Charitable Giving Challenge, challenges their employees to donate money monthly to be given to a different local charity of their choice. The idea is that a strong community builds a strong business, and by donating and volunteering they are helping fuel the economy and community in which they live.
This month their charity of choice is Something Bigger Than Yourself. Something Bigger Than Yourself is a local St. Louis, Missouri charity that helps raise awareness and assists less fortunate children by providing musical instruments, sports equipment, and special events to enhance the lives of those living in children’s homes throughout the United States. It all started when Jay Lipe and his daughter knocked on the door of The Alton Illinois Children’s home in 1998 bearing gifts for the children. Ever since then, Something Bigger Than Yourself has made it their mission to change the lives of children in challenging circumstances.
“Kids are the future of our community,” said Sarah Powell, Director of Client Development. “If there is one way to make a positive impact, it’s to help our future generations get the guidance and help that they need to make a positive impact when they are in our positions.”
