AUDUBON,
Pa., Oct. 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- This October,
Cleanlogic is proud to honor both Disability Employment
Awareness Month and Blindness Awareness Month by raising
awareness of the barriers individuals with disabilities and vision
impairment face in securing employment. With the continued high
unemployment rates among disabled individuals, especially those who
are blind or visually impaired, Cleanlogic is committed to leading
by example in advocating for more inclusive workplaces.
Throughout October, Cleanlogic will offer special promotions in
HEB and Meijer stores, with a portion of proceeds
supporting local and national organizations that work to enhance
the lives of those with disabilities and visual impairments. These
contributions will benefit the Association for the Blind and
Visually Impaired (ABVI) and Vibrant Works, both of
which are focused on advancing opportunities for those with vision
loss and providing essential services and support.
"Inclusion isn't just a talking point for us - it's at the heart
of everything we do," said Isaac
Shapiro, CEO and co-founder of Cleanlogic. "Our mission is
deeply rooted in our personal connection to the disabled and
visually impaired communities, and we're committed to helping
businesses and society embrace individuals with disabilities in and
out of the workplace."
Cleanlogic's personal connection to the cause does indeed run
deep. Co-founders Isaac Shapiro and
Mike Ghesser both have family
members with disabilities, inspiring the brand's inclusive mission.
Cleanlogic also proudly provides meaningful employment
opportunities for individuals with disabilities.
Promotions in participating HEB stores will benefit
Vibrant Works, an organization that champions the rights of
people who are blind or visually impaired to have equal
opportunities and support towards meaningful careers and
independent lives. Meanwhile, promotions in participating
Meijer stores will support the Association for the Blind
and Visually Impaired (ABVI), a vital resource in improving the
quality of life for individuals who are blind or visually
impaired.
