Palm Beach County Tax Collector Anne Gannon’s employees donated $3,925 to Bahamas relief through participation in a special October dress down opportunity, with 100 percent of the proceeds benefiting the Salvation Army’s Hurricane Dorian response efforts. Participating employees will wear a special Bahamas relief lanyard, a signal to clients the employee is dressed down this month for this very important cause.
“The photos and stories of suffering have affected many agency employees, as we know how close this storm came to our own community,” Gannon said. “I am so appreciative of our employees’ generosity in helping our Bahamian neighbors.”
Hurricane Dorian, the most powerful storm to hit the Bahamas in modern history, struck the island nation over Labor Day weekend leaving catastrophic destruction.
Gannon’s employees are committed to serving the community and making a positive impact. Last year, they donated $21,665 to nonprofits. To learn more about their community involvement, visit www.pbctax.com/community.
