How We Give Back

Taking an active role in giving everyone in our community a better and brighter tomorrow is something that just isn’t a focus at BIZPORT, it’s one of our guiding principles. Through hundreds of hours of hands-on community service and tens of thousands of dollars in donations and fundraising, our team is always looking for a way to contribute to communities we live and play in. All of us are coaches, troop leaders, pastors, deacons, board members of civic organizations, or have some role outside of BIZPORT. Being the area’s most advanced printer, we have the unique ability to donate signage and marketing materials that most organizations could not afford, nevertheless think of. It’s an honor for us to help our community partners succeed and we look forward to what the future brings in regard to the good we can do.

Northstar Career Academy

In 2014 we started an internship program with Northstar Career Academy. Every week, we have students with various special needs join the BIZPORT team. They are here to learn valuable work and social skills that will help them in the future. While the program may have started with the idea of transforming the lives of the Northstar students, it has truly been the BIZPORT family that has been transformed by them.

Special Olympics of VA

BIZPORT is proud to partner with the Special Olympics of VA for the Polar Plunge and Summer Games. We donate countless hours to the creation of cutting-edge printing and marketing ideas to make the events look amazing. We also donate a majority of the signage for the events, as well as countless on-site volunteers. Every February, many brave Bizportians take the plunge into the freezing Atlantic, raising money for a fantastic cause.

Running the Marine Corps Marathon and Ironman events, Glenn Childress, BIZPORT’S President and CEO, and other members of the BIZPORT team raise money for the Fisher House Foundation which supports our Military and their families. Being a former Marine and Combat Veteran continued support of our nation’s Military is extremely important to Glenn and BIZPORT.
