gh steps up to the plate - sponsors community youth baseball team

Picture
Community sports offer so much - to both the team players as well as the ​residents of the community.  Kids who play sports receive benefits such a boosting self-esteem and assisting with confidence, developing teamwork and leadership skills, relieving stress, developing lifelong healthy lifestyle habits, and just having fun!  The opportunity to achieve goals, develop communication and problem-solving skills, and creating bonding opportunities with teammates - all while staying in-shape.

​gh is proud to have the opportunity to support the 13U Highland Hornets baseball team through a sponsorship.  The gh Mission and Vision align perfectly with youth sports - both providing an avenue for camaraderie, community, and fun, as well as creating a positive difference in the lives of communities.

Highland family impacted by house fire,
gh provides assistance

On March 22, a Highland (Medina, OH) family suffered a devastating house fire and lost everything. The family currently has three school=aged students (two in middle school and one in high school) as well as two infant siblings and a sister who graduated in 2019.  Through the Highland Community Support Network, guy hang was able to assist with a monetary donation for immediate needs - including finding appropriate housing and providing either cash donations or gift cards. 

community, and help - in a time of need

gh recognizes that the current situation of the pandemic has created a crazy and tough environment, in so many ways, and while the group is not currently able to get-together, there's still work to be done... support that can be provided.  One of the words in gh's Mission is "community" and it strikes close to us all hat we are in times where the call for help in our communities is quite high.

The generosity of gh came through!  Here is a message from someone that helped facilitate an introduction and a need for help:

"Good morning.

I wanted to reach out to you and the group and thank you for your generosity for two members of the Wadsworth community that your group helped in the past month.  The father and son who received your gift cards were overwhelmed with appreciation, and I can share that they were most deserving given their tough economic situation.  Knowing this family as I do, they have a number of challenges that were difficult prior to the pandemic, but these were only exacerbated as the past few months have passed.  Couple this with the father having had recent surgery, and the gift cards helped to bring a welcome smile to their faces.  As the father shared, he does not know who the group is, but he and his son thank these kind fellas for helping his family.  

On a personal note, I want to thank the Guy Hang group for helping to be a resource in a time when there are so many in need.  I have always had a place in my heart for the guys that I have had a chance to meet, have as friends, but this experience has shown the true gift of humanity and kindness that is not lost in our world, even when we think it may be."

gh supports "Read Across America"

gh is reading - and donating - to a kindergarten class at the Helen Arnold school in Akron - The Big Blue Book of Beginner Books. 
​
...written by Madison:  "Imagine you as a book.   Getting ordered...EXCITING! Then getting pictures to go on a website... even better…!  Then going in a car to be read. Lastly gh passes out books. I get taken home with a little kid named James.  (I made that last part up, the name)"

 gh supports "Read to Me Day Akron"
​Reading aloud to children stimulates language and cognitive skills and builds motivation, curiosity and memory.  gh had the opportunity to discover how great it felt to help introduce children to a lifetime of love of books by volunteering to read in an Akron Public Schools classroom.
 
Volunteers were encouraged to bring a library book, a book of their own, or a new book to donate to the classroom, and gh stepped-up – providing books to each and every child in the class.

 gh answers Santa's call - again... 2017

guy hang is pleased to again be able to answer St. Nick's call - providing stuffed animals that will be given to children in Northeast Ohio during the holiday season.


Santa called - guy hang answered...  2016

guy hang is pleased to support St. Nick, as we were called about being able to provide a few presents that will be given to kids at Cleveland children hospitals and battered women shelters.
A professionally trained Santa Claus, and friend of guy hang, reached-out for help. 
While these Legos are just a small token of what guy hang can do to give back, this is what we're all about - making our communities better!
