For the fourth year, employees gave back to their local communities at 65 events
Tampa, FL - December 11, 2019 - Kforce celebrated its fourth annual Day of Giving on Friday, December 6 by donating 3,953 hours of community service to organizations in need. Each year associates take time out of their day to volunteer at firm-facilitated community service events. Since 2018, Day of Giving has expanded beyond Kforce’s Tampa headquarters to include over 50 offices across the country.
“Day of Giving is an important cornerstone of our community engagement, and it’s made possible by the passion our people have for helping others year-round. They are at the forefront of our corporate social responsibility program and helped guide the firm to our focus on education, community development and human services,” said Andrew Thomas, Kforce Chief Marketing Officer.
