Autism center selected as beneficiary of Year of Giving initiative

Youngstown, OH — On October 11th, representatives from GBS visited The Rich Center with a $30,000 donation check from funds they collected during a recent golf outing. Leaders from GBS previously toured The Rich Center and decided they wanted to help by making the Center a beneficiary of their Year of Giving initiative.

“GBS started YOGI (Year of Giving Initiative) and our golf outing is one of our largest fundraisers,” Vice President of Human Resources Jennifer Ostapiak said. “We were very impressed with The Rich Center and what it offers our community. It’s a non- profit that really seeks to help families.”

When asked if GBS would like to see the donation go toward anything specific at the Center, Ostapiak mentioned a number of things from building renovations and sound proofing, to classroom and student support.

“We know The Rich Center will put this donation to the best use they can,” Ostapiak said.

GBS Account Manager Christine Anania shared those sentiments and appreciates how The Rich Center welcomes donors to visit so they can see exactly where their donations are used.

“It’s nice that we can see where the money goes,” Anania said. “It’s nice that we can visit and see where it’s going to help and who it is going to help.”

The Rich Center couldn’t be more appreciative of GBS and their willingness to help.

“This is an amazing gift to our Center that will have a long-lasting impact on our facility and those we serve,” Rich Center Executive Director Mike Latessa said. “GBS showed us a tremendous amount of generosity by making us a beneficiary of their own fundraising efforts and our Center couldn’t be more thankful to them for recognizing how much this will do for our facility and those we serve.”
