As Gavel International celebrated our 40th anniversary, we chose to honor this milestone with a blend of festivity and philanthropy. On December 6, 2024, our team embraced the excitement of the occasion during our company’s “Spirit Week,” donning cozy flannel pajama bottoms and specially designed t-shirts featuring the winning 40th anniversary logo. This logo, selected through a company-wide vote from designs created by our talented team members, perfectly captured the essence of our celebration.

The highlight of our anniversary event was assembling custom Cheeriodicals kits, crafted to bring comfort and joy to those in need. Partnering with Cheeriodicals, an organization dedicated to helping corporate communities make a measurable impact, allowed us to engage in a socially responsible team-building experience that truly resonated with our values.

By choosing to collaborate with Cheeriodicals, we not only strengthened our internal connections but also extended a helping hand. These thoughtfully curated care packages are set to brighten the days of young patients at Lurie Children’s Hospital in the Chicagoland area.

This initiative exemplifies how we can turn corporate milestones into opportunities for giving back. As we reflect on our 40 years of success, we recognize that true achievement encompasses not only our business milestones but also the lives we touch and the spirits we uplift.

Looking to the future, we are committed to integrating community impact into our celebrations, reminding ourselves and others that our resources and team spirit can drive transformative change. Together, let’s continue to create meaningful moments that extend far beyond office walls.
