Our Miami Gardens Service Center has been hard at work positively impacting the surrounding community. Recently, they were able to get together and collect supplies requested by the local Miami Humane Society. The team collected toys and other supplies, like food and treats, needed for the facility to keep running smoothly.
Our team had a great time giving back to our four-legged friends this holiday season and they even received a tour of the entire facility. Many of our local Miami, FL teammates have a heart for animals, so the team is looking forward to supporting and helping the Miami Humane Society again soon.

Finding opportunities to serve one another and our surrounding communities is never difficult for our Canton Service Center! Recently, the team was able to participate in Hugs in a Blanket to support the Cherokee Recreation & Parks Agency donation efforts.
Hugs in a Blanket is an event that is held yearly by the Cherokee Recreation & Parks team to accept donations in support of helping seniors in need. The Canton team was able to fill two large laundry baskets full of blankets, slippers, and caring notes.
We are blessed to have Northwest teammates who will always look for ways to care for and serve their surrounding communities. Our Canton team can’t wait until the next give-back-moment comes around!

Three Northwest teammates from the Newnan and Dallas Service Centers teamed up with Wreaths Across America this holiday season to honor those who have served and remember fallen military veterans by placing wreaths on various tombstones.
This event is held yearly and impacts more than 3,700 locations across the U.S. Multiple people in the area were also in attendance and wreaths were placed at every burial site. The Newnan and Dallas team teamed up to join in the nationwide ceremony at the Georgia National Cemetery in Canton. This cemetery is open to all members of the armed forces.
It’s incredible to witness teammates honor and serve others in ways that are important to them. We are grateful to have teammates who embody having a Servant’s Heart. The Dallas, GA and Newnan, GA teammates are looking forward to supporting more community initiatives in the future as a team.

In early December, a large crowd gathered in Rome, GA for the annual Christmas Parade. Known as one of the longest running holiday parades in Georgia, many have joined in the fun over the past 60 years. Our Dallas Service Center was able to attend this year’s parade with decorated trucks, ugly sweaters, and a holiday-themed Mouse!
Getting to be involved with the community to get ready for the holiday season is always a fun time! Our team was one of many other local businesses that we were able to sign up with and be a part of this joyous time. The Dallas team is grateful for the support they received from other teammates and the attendees of the parade.
“I am so proud of the team we have here in Dallas, and very excited about the future. This will be a yearly event for our team,” says the Dallas Service Center Manager, Shaun P. We can’t wait to see how the Dallas team continues to be involved with the local community!

Recently, our Miami Service Center participated in a walk/run with St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital to honor Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. This marks the third year they have participated in the walk/run, as they believe this is an opportunity to help create a hopeful future to end childhood cancer. Many of our teammates are passionate about not only supporting local organizations but also ones specific to supporting children, so having teammates come together from multiple South Florida service centers for such a great cause was incredible. This was the team’s first year participating in the walk/run as Northwest, and the Northwest team truly appreciated being able to support our SFL team even from states away. The Mouse was even able to make an appearance!
Our Miami team believes, “When you are there for the community, the community is there for you.” Being able to make memories while supporting St. Jude’s mission and joining many more who share the same vision is a big why behind this yearly commitment. The teammates enjoyed getting to make a difference while spending time together supporting St. Jude.
Teammates and their families from across the South Florida offices participated in the walk/run, with The Northwest Mouse making its appearance for the first time! This was the team’s first year supporting St. Jude as part of the Northwest Family. Co-Directors of the Good Deed Team, as well as other Northwest teammates came to support our South Florida team, and it was a great first event to be able to do together. We are so grateful for a team who makes time to give back to and support our local communities in big and small ways.
St. Jude has been a leader in the understanding and treatment of childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases since 1962. With multiple historical milestones under the hospital’s belt, they have been able to provide world-class service to children who suffer from unspeakable diseases. With the help of our South Florida team, the hospital was able to move a step closer to an overall cure.

After completing a customer’s service, Northwest’s local Canton Service Center team came together to further support the longtime, elderly customer with much needed yardwork. Several of the Canton, GA Service Professionals came to the customer’s home to help and clear up some potential landscaping that could create pest concerns.
Our teammates were able to trim trees back from the customer’s gutters to help prevent pests from making their way inside. While working outside of the home, they discovered a hornet’s nest and were able to safely remove it, free of charge. The smallest things can make a huge difference, and the team enjoyed taking the time to help in this small way.
Discovering these golden opportunities to shine beyond pest control continues to be important to our team. Our customers make up our community! Being able to create extraordinary experiences and make a difference for our community is why we do what we do. We’re thankful for our Canton Service Center teammates who continue to care for their customers, communities, and each other.

Creating lasting relationships within the local community is something that Northwest was founded on. Though our purpose is pest control, we are first and foremost in the people business. When Rockvale Middle School said they needed assistance with their yearly field day, our Murfreesboro Good Deed Team stepped in.
The team collected over 20 cases of drinks, including water and a variety of soda. This will provide over 600 drinks to the students at Rockvale, making their field day an exciting day filled with hydration and fun!
We are so grateful for an extraordinary team that truly cares about the community and contributes to making a difference and putting our customers first!
