Fluid Management Donates to the Families of Instituto
Fluid Management employees joined Instituto del Progreso Latino in Chicago on Saturday, December 9, for their annual Family Toy Drive to benefit children who often don’t receive gifts during the holidays due to financial hardships.
The effort to support Instituto was a two-part volunteer event. Employees first collected and wrapped over 100 toys at their facility. One week later, seven employees attended the Toy Drive in the Little Village neighborhood of Chicago to serve as Santa’s helpers. They built gingerbread houses with the kids, passed out toys to families and facilitated a drive-through pickup option. In addition to collecting gifts and donating their time, the team also donated $10,000 USD to Instituto through the IDEX Foundation.
