Lancaster, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/28/2016 -- ImageFIRST, the largest and fastest-growing healthcare linen provider in the nation, puts the patient experience at the center of all it does. This means, in part, providing high-quality, sanitized healthcare products like medical scrubs to inpatient and outpatient facilities in Washington, PA (and throughout the state and nationwide); but the linen rental and laundry service does so much more. Recognizing that patients are also community members, ImageFIRST locations across the US participate in quarterly community giving events. Recently, ImageFIRST Lancaster's first community giving event of the second quarter shattered a Guinness World Record.
On Mother's Day 2016, ImageFIRST Lancaster associates participated in the 27th annual Make-A-Wish Mother's Day Truck Convoy. The Make-A-Wish Foundation grants wishes to children with serious medical conditions, making it a charity whose purpose is close to ImageFIRST's heart. The annual convoy raises funds to help the charity fulfill its mission. This year, Make-A-Wish representatives speculated that the fundraiser surpassed a goal of $350,000. Moreover, the gathering of 590 trucks officially made the event the largest truck convoy in history. ImageFIRST Lancaster recognizes their ability to participate in this record-shattering event as an honor.
In addition to Make-A-Wish, ImageFIRST donates time, money and in-kind donations to multiple charities across the nation, including Ronald McDonald House Charities, Habitat for Humanity and March of Dimes. In 2015 alone, ImageFIRST gave over half a million dollars in monetary and in-kind donations. Coupled with the company's dedication to providing medical linen, gowns, scrubs and uniforms that enhance the patient experience in Pittsburgh, PA healthcare facilities (and those across the nation), ImageFIRST's regular giving events have established them as a true community member.
