As a pest professional starting a business of my own I wanted to build a foundation that incorporated growth and support for the local community.
It is important to me and my family to be working in the community for the community.
I’ve been in many pest situations where customers have needed to clean out cupboards and pantries to treat the pest of concern. Clients easily have a bag or two of non-perishable groceries they can part with and not miss.
Meanwhile, there are soup kitchens and food distributors that are serving others excellent meals from tomato cans, beans, rice, etc. I can connect customers who may have non-perishable groceries to donate and the local food bank who can get that food to the people who need it.
Nottingham Pest Control is making community support a constant part of our work. We are proud to offer new customers a discount for giving us a bag of groceries to donate to the Food Bank.
And thanks to our customers, in our first two years of business, we were able to:
- donate over 3500 pounds of food to the Food Bank of Contra Costa and Solano – that’s the equivalent of 2,800 meals.
- provide 25 elementary students with backpacks in Oakley to give them the tools they need to succeed in school (organized by FIT4MOM).
- supply lunch to 150 children living in low-income households while they were on a special Juneteenth field trip.
- give five large Tonka dump trucks to a preschool in Brentwood.
As the company grows so too will the support back into the community.
Looking ahead, Nottingham Pest Control will continue to offer a $50 discount to new customers who give us a bag of groceries to donate to the Food Bank. We will also continue to support efforts to help underprivileged kids in our community.
Be part of our family and help us do great things in our community.
