In response to a local newspaper article requesting help in furnishing supplies to local foster children with limited back-to-school resources, Dard Products, Evanston, Ill., provided hundreds of its school-related products to the Lake County Charities Office Foster Care Department. The company contributed products from its sizeable Tagmaster line, including staplers, rulers and pens, which were received in time for the upcoming school year.
This act of charity was not the first for the family-owned company. Last year, after the devastation left by Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans and the surrounding areas, Dard Products donated a variety of its safety and emergency items to aid hurricane victims. “We’re always happy to give back to the community,” said Harriette Shevin, CFO.
