In the past,
JM Direct invested most of its philanthropic efforts towards working with
Operation Smile; an organization who raises funds and awareness for children
born with cleft palates in less fortunate countries. However, this weekend JM
Direct worked hard to spruce up the community that they all live and work in.
JM Direct
members participated in White Rock Lake’s “For the Love of The Lake”
Second Saturday clean up last Saturday morning, July 12, 2014..
After some
ideas were tossed around about the different ways that JM Direct could impact
their community directly, they came to the conclusion that they would take part
in the Second Saturday clean up with other volunteers from around the Dallas
area. The Second Saturday clean up is the perfect way to give back to the
community while getting some exercise with your friends and neighbors.
Many team
members of JM Direct visit White Rock Lake frequently for outdoor recreational
activities, especially during the summer months. What better way for JM Direct team members to give back
to the park and the great lake we enjoy every weekend then by helping to keep it beautiful
and clean?
"It is important for JM Direct team members to
volunteer in events that give back directly to the community that we live in.
We are so excited to continue our work with White Rock Lake’s organization in
order to help keep our lake clean and inviting for all who enjoy it." said
Samantha Lozano, Human Resources Manager.
This was JM Direct’s second time to participate in the clean up as an organization, although some team members participate more regularly.
