Excitement is in the air as we gear up for our busiest and most festive season! We’re hiring nearly 8,000 seasonal associates to help deliver millions of smiles while deepening our commitment to breaking down barriers to employment. Our OH distribution facility recently welcomed its first group of associates from The Fuse Network, a nonprofit preparing adults with disabilities for meaningful employment. We’re also continuing our collaboration with First Step Staffing, one of the largest nonprofits in the U.S. helping individuals overcome poverty and homelessness through employment — with all of our Atlanta seasonal associates coming from their program! Let the holiday season begin!?https://lnkd.in/euMKGrfu
This is such an amazing initiative! It's wonderful to see 1-800-FLOWERS.COM not only spreading holiday cheer but also making a positive impact through partnerships that create meaningful employment opportunities. How do you see these collaborations growing in the future?
