Global Industrial associates and interns joined Harmony Heights Day School students and staff for a ribbon cutting during the Global Industrial "Corporate Day of Service" at the school's East Norwich, New York, campus on July 17, 2026.

Global Industrial associates and summer interns worked alongside Harmony Heights students and staff to assemble and install donated industrial-strength benches and tables. Designed for long-term durability, the new outdoor furnishings will provide welcoming spaces where students can learn, gather, collaborate, and build lasting connections. The day began with breakfast before volunteers joined students across campus to complete the project together.

"Our associates are the heart of who we are as a company, and this Day of Service reflects the impact we can make when we come together in support of our communities," sad Anesa Chaibi, Chief Executive Officer of Global Industrial. "We believe resilient communities are strengthened by welcoming spaces where people can connect, learn and thrive. We're honored to partner with Harmony Heights on a project that will create a lasting gathering place for students and reflects our commitment to helping build environments that serve communities for years to come."

"At Global Industrial, giving back starts in the communities where we live and work," said Adina Storch, Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary of Global Industrial, and Chairperson of the Day of Service. "One of the most rewarding parts of this project is seeing our associates and interns work with Harmony Heights students to build something together. It's a meaningful example of what can be accomplished when a community comes together with a shared purpose."

This new project comes as Harmony Heights continues to rebuild and strengthen its campus community after a fire at the school in 2023.


"We are grateful to Global Industrial for partnering with us to create an outdoor space that directly supports the academic and therapeutic work we do with girls navigating mental health challenges," said Tatiana Pejkovic, Principal of Harmony Heights. "For our students, learning and therapy in nature can foster a greater sense of peace and connection, boost mood, reduce stress and anxiety, and create a calming environment that supports engagement. This will be more than an academic space as it will also give students a dedicated setting for therapy groups and other opportunities to heal, connect and thrive."

Through our Partnerships With Purpose program, Global Industrial partners with nonprofit organizations that reflect the Company's Corporate Social Responsibility Program mission pillars. By volunteering their time and providing hands-on support, our associates help strengthen the communities where we live and work.
