Helping to Champion Every Girl’s Right to Education – GTN’s 2024 BBFBS Campaign

Our 11th annual Beards and Braids for Busy Season (BBFBS) campaign has begun!

For more than a decade, our annual BBFBS campaign has successfully raised over $41,000 for various nonprofit organizations, including AdoptAClassroom.org, Canines for Disabled Kids, International Rescue Committee, Move For Hunger, and No Kid Hungry. What initially started as a way to add some fun to the tax busy season, our BBFBS campaign has evolved into a significant annual event that offers crucial support to nonprofit organizations around the world. 

Giving with Purpose: How GTN Supported Meaningful Causes in 2023

As a company deeply invested in not just our industry but also in making a meaningful difference in our communities and the world, we at GTN believe our commitment to social and environmental causes goes hand in hand with the values we share with our clients, partners, and employees. Every year, we dedicate ourselves to supporting and championing causes around the world through financial contributions, employee volunteer time off, and company-wide service events. In this article, we reflect on some of the causes that resonated with us in 2023.

GTN's Toys For Tots Drive 2023

For the sixth year in a row, GTN is collecting toy donations for Toys For Tots for the 2023 holiday season! 

Communities throughout the US continue to face financial struggles and during the holiday season, families can feel the weight of this burden even more. To help our neighbors, we can alleviate some of this stress by sharing resources where we’re able. Together, we can support the Toys For Tots mission and ensure families across the US can provide their children with the joy of holiday gifts. 

Delivering Life-Saving Aid During Tax Busy Season

Our 10th annual Beards and Braids for Busy Season (BBFBS) campaign has begun!

Ten years ago, what began as a simple way to infuse some fun into the tax busy season has turned into an annual event to provide support for non-profit organizations around the world. To date, we have raised over $36,000 for nonprofit organizations such as AdoptAClassroom.org, Canines for Disabled Kids, Move For Hunger, and No Kid Hungry.

Fighting Hunger During Tax Busy Season

Our annual Beards and Braids for Busy Season (BBFBS) begins now! In the campaign’s ninth year, GTN is once again partnering with Move For Hunger, a national non-profit organization that has created a sustainable way to reduce food waste and fight hunger. Our 2022 BBFBS campaign strives to make an impact on the growing hunger crisis as millions of Americans face food insecurity every day. This will be GTN’s second year partnering with Move For Hunger and our goal is to surpass last year. With your help in 2021, the BBFBS campaign was among Move For Hunger's top 10 fundraisers providing 16,277 meals to those in need! We are very excited about this year’s campaign and the continued role we can play in helping the Move For Hunger cause.

The Pandemic and Sustainability – Making Time for Change

Happy New Year! As most of us do, the start of a new year usually brings resolutions for making positive changes in one’s life. Changes that relate to diet, exercise, discovering a new hobby. This year, when making your 2022 resolutions, consider including one of eating more plant-based meals in your diet.
