Charitable Foundation

Because we are family owned, the Gordon Flesch Company cares very much about the communities we call home. That's why we are active in local charities throughout the Great Lakes Region, and it's why we have a charitable foundation run by our own volunteers. Every year this foundation donates $100,000 to a wide variety of causes helping the areas—and people—closest to us.

The Gordon Flesch Charitable Foundation, Inc. is led by a board of employee volunteers. The charities themselves are selected from employee nominations, as well as requests from nonprofit organizations that meet our criteria. This lets everyone put their personal stamp on the organization's charitable efforts.

Since 2002, the Gordon Flesch Charitable Foundation has donated one million dollars to various charities and organizations throughout the Midwest.
