Global Industrial Company and the Helen Keller National Center have partnered for an annual day of service. The inaugural event took place on Wednesday, October 25th and included facilities enhancements to the Helen Keller National Center headquarters in Port Washington, NY and a ribbon-cutting ceremony to dedicate the new “Collaboration Courtyard – Where Ideas Meet Action,” donated by Global Industrial. The day’s activities included teams of Global Industrial associates and residents and staff of the Helen Keller National Center joining together to make improvements to the front entrance, main courtyard, walking paths and guide dog run area. As part of these efforts, Global Industrial donated new park benches, picnic tables, umbrella stands and trash and pet waste receptacles that were assembled and installed by volunteers from both organizations. The assortment of products was curated for Helen Keller by Global Industrial specialists from among Global’s wheelchair accessible and ADA-compliant products. Additionally, Global Industrial’s first prototype of its newly developed Braille water bottle-filling station was unveiled and installed at the facility, the first of a line of Braille-engraved products that Global Industrial is developing.
