Although we support many charitable organizations in Polk County, the United Way holds a special place with us. We have an employee giving program that over 95% of our staff participates in. In 2019, our employees gave over $10,000 to the United Way of Central Florida, supporting education, health, and economic initiatives in our community.
As part of our 90th Anniversary celebration, we held a Printer Smash event to benefit Parker Street Ministries. We brought out some old, defunct machines from our warehouse and let people go at them with the weapon of their choice — and it was all for a good cause! We raised $1000 through this event to donate to Parker Street, a charity that is working hard to revitalize the Parker Street neighborhood here in Lakeland.
Every holiday season, Boring selects a charity to be the recipient of an employee food, toy, or supply drive. Past beneficiaries include VISTE and the Salvation Army.
Boring often has used copiers, printers, scanners, and fax machines on hand that can be donated to qualifying nonprofits in the Lakeland area.
