Duncan’s AFL Unveils Philanthropic Initiative with a $10M Kickoff
Today is a day folks in Duncan will remember for quite some time. Our hometown giant, AFL, just gave us another reason to be proud. The company marked its glorious 40th anniversary not with fancy fireworks, but with a heartfelt gesture aimed at making the world a better place. AFL rolled out a new philanthropic arm, aptly named The AFL Foundation, and kickstarted it with a whopping $10 million. And they’re doing so in association with our very own Spartanburg County Foundation – talk about strengthening local bonds!
AFL’s Roaring History of Community Engagement
Let’s take a moment to appreciate AFL’s track record when it comes to giving back to the community. Over the years, this company has stood shoulder-to-shoulder with us through thick and thin. Be it volunteer works, scholarships, or grants, AFL has consistently demonstrated its strong commitment to positively impacting our lives. Remember when they donated to disaster recovery efforts? With The AFL Foundation, they’re set to expand their involvement even further – not just within Duncan or Spartanburg County, but globally.
Working Together for a Better Tomorrow
Joining hands with the Spartanburg County Foundation positions AFL to leverage their partner’s deep-rooted experience in charitable management. With over 75 years of know-how in this arena, the Spartanburg County Foundation is expected to help maximize the impact of AFL’s new foundation. Jaxon Lang, AFL’s president and CEO, couldn’t contain his excitement about it. He believes that establishing The AFL Foundation is a tribute to their four decades of significant community focus and a pledge to their future efforts for community betterment.
More Than Just a Celebration
AFL’s 40th-anniversary celebration tells us one thing – they’re not about the past but the future. As Mr. Lang rightly mentioned, AFL isn’t just celebrating its history. Through The AFL Foundation, the firm is earnestly committing to our future, ensuring continued community engagement for decades to come, and where it matters most. After all, any progress that doesn’t uplift the community is scarcely worth its name.
Moving Forward
Through its latest initiative, AFL reaffirms its dedication to civic engagement, aiming to bring about sustainable, positive change to improve our quality of life. Launched in 1984, AFL is an international manufacturer providing end-to-end solutions to various sectors. And with each passing year, they’re only growing stronger โ in business, and in their commitment to making the world a better place.
Now with a hefty $10 million initial investment and a clear goal, The AFL Foundation seems poised to act as a beacon of hope and positivity, not just in Duncan or Spartanburg County, but worldwide. As we brace to embrace the future and navigate the challenges that come with it, it’s heartening to know that powerhouses like AFL are reinforcing their support. Here’s to many more years of AFL’s leadership โ in the industry, and in our community.
