ST. LOUIS, MO – August 18, 2025 – Abstrakt Marketing Group proudly wrapped its 8th Annual Give Back Day on August 8, 2025, with 450 team members and their guests volunteering their time and talents to support local nonprofits. This year’s event benefited 28 organizations across the Greater St. Louis area, contributing a collective total of over 3,000 volunteer hours in just one day.
From landscaping and painting to organizing donations and serving meals, Abstrakt team members rolled up their sleeves to tackle projects that made a tangible impact in neighborhoods throughout the community. Each volunteer group was paired with a nonprofit partner to ensure every hour contributed directly supported the organization’s mission.
Nonprofit partners expressed overwhelming gratitude for the effort, energy, and positivity brought by Abstrakt volunteers. One partner shared, “The team was a delight to work with. I have never enjoyed working with a group of volunteers so much.“ Another commented on the impact of the work completed, noting, “They not only tackled garden clean-up but even removed small trees. There’s not enough ‘thank you’ for these wonderful people. I look forward to seeing them every year.”
Others praised the professionalism and spirit of the volunteers, saying, “The event coordinator and group leader were well organized and communicative. The employees who volunteered worked hard, kept a positive attitude, and were happy to be out serving their community. We are so glad to have participated in this meaningful event.”
“Give Back Day is one of the most meaningful days on our calendar,” said Director of Employee Engagement and Corporate Culture, Danny Beene. “It’s about more than just volunteering; it’s about building relationships, strengthening our community, and showing up where we’re needed most. We’re proud of the lasting impact our team can make together.”
