COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT

We Care is a program sponsored by Herman Miller and Workplace Resource Group (WRG) in association with the Boys and Girls Club of East Dallas.  Each year, Herman Miller and WRG work with Designers, Architects, and Corporate Sponsors to bring children in our local communities a day of seasonal good cheer.  This program provides children an opportunity to make and give gifts for their families, which is something they may not normally be able to afford.

The We Care Event Planning Committee will invite a number of local design and architectural firms to participate. These firms are responsible for creating a holiday craft that could be made by a 5 to 13 year-old child, plus provide employees to staff the table so that the children will have help in building these crafts. 

At the event, each firm will have their own table and craft. A small group of children will be provided a student volunteer who will escort their group to a craft table to choose the crafts they wish to build. The event will enable children to go home with a sense of accomplishment and gifts to give. In addition to crafts, there are photos with Santa, side games, face painters, a balloon sculptor, and a food/beverage station.

We extend our immense appreciation to the following A&D firms for their participation and support:
