Moving to a new office often means new flooring.  But when it’s an area non-profit organization doing the moving, the funds aren’t always readily available to make that improvement happen.

When the Green Bay Division of March of Dimes was readying for a shift to new workspace at 677 Baeten Road, H.J. Martin stepped in to assist.  Again demonstrating an ongoing commitment to its hometown community, the company donated over $7,500 in new carpeting and employee labor.

The resulting change was remarkable.  Now in place is bright, patterned carpet whose sunny tone will welcome visitors and provide an upbeat environment for March of Dimes staff and volunteers.

“The carpet looks great!  We couldn’t be more appreciative of what H.J. Martin has done for us,” says Tammy DeJardin, executive director of the Green Bay Division of March of Dimes’ Wisconsin Chapter.  “We rely on support from the community, and H.J. Martin really came through for us at our new offices.”
