Leaving a Legacy

On Tuesday, February 27, InterfaceFLOR kicked off our 7th year of Legacy Projects – a half day of community service conducted during our national sales meeting. We were thrilled for our first opportunity to volunteer in Atlanta, Georgia, home of our corporate headquarters, Interface, Inc. We sent 250 volunteers to work on 11 projects with eight different local organizations. We have a unique culture at InterfaceFLOR, committed to working hard, leaving a legacy, and giving back. The day was an overwhelming success! Tasks were accomplished, new friendships were started, new skills were learned, and plenty of stories emerged.

Since 2005 our Legacy Projects have been in six different cities in seven years, working with 55 different organizations and 1400 volunteers giving 3,500 volunteer hours and this year was no different.
