Giving back
The annual LOVErdis programme launched in 2019, and has supported recipients such as the Nemours Children’s Health, Joslyn Art Museum, the Jewish Federation of Omaha, Habitat for Humanity of Omaha, and Metro Transit Omaha.
Through this programme, Verdis Group aims to give back to the communities that support it, and offers time, skills, and charitable donations. It works with the year’s selected nonprofit to address its sustainability challenges, and also champions volunteering with company service days and time off for community service.
