Lancaster, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/02/2015 -- As a young person, it's easy to take simple things like school supplies for granted – adults, however, know that the clothing, pens, pencils, notebooks, folders, binders, bags and other supplies required for a successful academic year require careful budgeting and thrifty shopping – and sometimes find they've fallen short. This year, recognizing the importance of being prepared for a new school year with the right supplies, healthcare laundry experts ImageFIRST hosted a nationwide backpack drive in order to help students and parents in need, with a large turnout and excellent donation results, including at the Lancaster location.
ImageFIRST has been providing medical practices nationwide with healthcare laundry services since 1967, and has in that time developed an excellent reputation for excellent service and quality products. The company boasts a 95% retention rate of its clients, the highest in the industry, and currently has 36 locations with over 600 employees. Their dedication to excellence, combined with nearly a half-century of experience, has made this family-owned company the largest and fastest-growing provider of healthcare laundry services, for which ImageFIRST excels in services offering quality products, linen inventory management, and regulation standards compliance – making them a one-stop-shop for medical facilities seeking rental and laundry services of healthcare linen and apparel.
ImageFIRST applies their commitment to excellence to outside the workplace as well as within, and strives to contribute to the well-being of the communities of their clients and employees. During the nationwide Annual Backpack Drive, the local ImageFIRST Lancaster location collected 149 backpacks, which will be donated to a local organization that helps needy children who might otherwise not be able to afford school supplies. ImageFIRST employees support numerous volunteering events for well-known charitable causes such as United Way, Habitat for Humanity, March of Dimes and Ronald McDonald House charities, amongst others.
