Created in 2002, the Gordon Flesch Charitable Foundation has donated more than $2.5 million to various philanthropic organizations in Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Ohio and South Dakota. Each year, the foundation remains committed to supporting the communities within Gordon Flesch Company’s (GFC’s) territories, honoring the memory of founder Gordon Flesch’s mission to give back to the areas where GFC’s employees and customers live and work. In addition to its annual donations, the Foundation also engages in targeted giving for emergency disaster relief. This year funds were allocated to Iowa nonprofits for [flood relief in affected communities](https://www.gflesch.com/news/gordon-flesch-charitable-foundation-donates-funds-to-iowa-nonprofits-for-flood-relief) after record-high river levels. The Gordon Flesch Company (GFC) has a longstanding tradition of charitable giving and philanthropy. In 2001 following the September 11th attacks, company employees and the Flesch family agreed to donate funds instead of hosting the annual employee recognition dinners. This initiative, led by Gordon’s sons, John, Tom and Bill Flesch, marked the beginning of what would become the Gordon Flesch Charitable Foundation. Unlike most corporate giving programs, the Gordon Flesch Charitable Foundation is managed entirely by company associates. Each year associates nominate local community organizations that are close to their hearts. The Foundation’s board of directors annually reviews nominations and selects award recipients.  “We are truly honored to support these local non-profit organizations in their efforts to expand their impactful work,” says Kelly Moran, President of the Gordon Flesch Charitable Foundation. “It is incredibly humbling to be a part of the meaningful work that this year’s grant recipients are doing to strengthen our communities.” For more information about the Gordon Flesch Charitable Foundation, or to apply for the next round of grants, [visit our website](https://www.gflesch.com/the-gfc-difference/giving-back) or [download our brochure](https://www.gflesch.com/hubfs/GFC/Gordon%20Flesch%20Charitable%20Foundation%20Overview%20-%202024.pdf).  ## About Gordon Flesch Company The Gordon Flesch Company is one of the largest independent providers of office technology solutions in the nation.
