Elmsford, NY, June 2017—With the weather heating up, the team at Unitex wanted to surprise the children at St. Joseph’s Children’s Hospital in Paterson, New Jersey with a “cool” activity and celebration for the upcoming summer season. In addition to summertime inspired gifts for every child at the hospital, Unitex challenged the kids to a sun visor decorating art project. Beach buckets, water toys, selfie sticks and gift cards were some of the special surprise presents delivered to each room by the Unitex team. The goal is that every kid and their family will be able to enjoy this gift for the summer season and beyond.
The team at Unitex and the Child Life Department at St. Joseph’s Children’s Hospital brought presents to every child in the hospital this month.
“While most companies are focused on giving back around the holiday season, at Unitex, we think it’s important to bring cheer and happiness to these kids all year long,” said David Potack, President of Unitex. “We work with St. Joseph’s Children’s Hospital regularly and we wanted to do something extra special for the kids this month. In addition to the holiday party we create for the kids every year, we feel that this summertime party will be our new tradition with this amazing hospital. At Unitex, giving back is part of our business DNA and we are fortunate to have partners like St. Joseph’s Hospital to work with.”
“At Unitex, we are dedicated to the communities where we operate our business,” said Seth Gershman, Director Marketing & Communications at Unitex. “We care about our customers, like St. Joe’s, and we go out of our way to extend our support to the families they help and take care of. By working together, we change the lives of these people and create positive impact, and that is something that Unitex values as a top priority always.”
