Thousands of Convergint Colleagues Revitalize Hundreds of Communities and Increase School Safety Globally for Annual Day of Service

Convergint’s 24^th Annual Convergint Social Responsibility Day and STEP Up for Schools Initiative Benefit Underserved Communities and Needs of People Around the World

Today, more than 174 community organizations and 35 schools across 37 countries globally are stronger as nearly 11,000 volunteers from Convergint, a global systems integrator with 220 locations worldwide, volunteered approximately 60,000 hours of their time for the company’s 24^th annual Convergint Social Responsibility Day.

This year’s efforts include support from over 30 partners across the industry who also volunteered their time and over $639,000 in donations of goods and services. The day also includes donations of security technology to over 20 schools as part of the organization’s STEP Up for Schools initiative — a vital program to create safer learning environments for students and educators across the globe.

“We are proud that today, and for nearly a quarter of a century, our colleagues and industry partners come together in just a 24-hour span as a greater force of good to give back to our communities,” said Ann Fandozzi, CEO, Convergint. “Helping address unmet needs in the communities where Convergint colleagues and their families reside – including secure, safe educational environments to foster positive experiences for the next generation – is core to our values.”

In conjunction with Convergint Social Responsibility Day, the company continues its STEP (Secure, Train, Educate, Protect) Up for Schools Initiative to create safer learning environments for students and educators across the globe – a critical effort that supports underserved schools by donating critical security upgrades and hands-on assistance to help meet the unique safety needs of each campus. From installing new intrusion detection and video camera systems to helping with infrastructure improvements and other security and safety services, Convergint teams are working side by side with local partners and educators to build more secure, welcoming spaces where learning can thrive.

To date, more than 100 STEP Up projects have been completed by Convergint and its partners, impacting communities globally. STEP Up projects underway around the world this year include:

• U.S. – Multiple projects across the country in Baltimore, MD; Knoxville, TN; Dallas, TX; Englewood, CO; Nashville, TN; San Diego, CA; and San Francisco, CA. For example, Colorado’s Finest High School of Choice, serving over 300 students in Englewood, CO, is receiving 28 new cameras, 15 speakers, vape and aggression sensors, card reader and lockdown technologies.
• India – Captain Chandan Lal Special Middle School for the Blind in Gurugram is receiving an installation and donation of CCTV systems as well as painting and landscaping refurbishments.
• Thailand – Wat Sabok Khiao School in Nakhon Nayok will receive installation and donation of a solar pole, providing light source to illuminate the area as most students ride their bicycle to school, and food for 58 students and faculty.

While Convergint Social Responsibility Day has an impact around the globe, in the US alone over 5,000 Convergint volunteers came together, spending over 43,000 hours of their time supporting over 90 community organizations.
