Local Adel Company Raised $2,422 for John D. Gomke Charity
BASE® has been a local Adel employer for almost a decade and recently came together to support the John D. Gomke Charity.
The company currently employs 26 people and was able to raise $2,422 in roughly one week’s time to support the local charity.
The John D. Gomke Charity benefits organizations that assist in caring for and providing resources to sick infants and families who have lost infants in and around Central Iowa.
A business that is built on helping business owners across the country, BASE® offers portable benefit savings options to assist with the rising cost of healthcare with products like the BASE® HRA and BASE® 125 Cafeteria Plan.
BASE® was excited to be able to support a charity in their own community, especially a charity that has already given back to the community by using money raised to certify 80 people in CPR as well as purchase the AEDs for the Adel and DeSoto Elementary schools.
This charity has committed to the upkeep of all 3 AEDs in the schools and continues to help upgrade the community’s ability to save children’s lives, which made it pretty easy for BASE® employees to jump on board for such a great cause with many of the employees having children in the ADM school district.
BASE® is hoping to dedicate even more time to this fundraising event next year and hopes to top the $2,422 raised this year. BASE® presented Steve & Jessica Gomke, charity founders, with a check at a special dedication on July 15.
Jessica voiced her gratitude by saying, “Words cannot express how amazed we are by BASE® and the support they have shown John’s Charity! It is wonderful how much they give back to the community with their charity work. We are honored and hope to continue to grow our relationship with them for years to come”.
