Gabriel Group couldn’t be happier to announce that it has raised a total of $16,000 for its 2019 Pay-It-Forward partner organization, The Sparrow’s Nest Maternity Home. The annual effort beat its $15,000 goal set for the calendar year and also helped Gabriel Group surpass the $150,000 mark for the company’s overall contributions from the past twelve years of Pay-It-Forward charitable giving.

The mission of The Sparrow’s Nest is to empower young moms and their children to realize their full potential. As a nonprofit, the organization helps teen mothers who experience homelessness or abusive situations by providing them with shelter, resources and supplies. Gabriel Group adopted The Sparrow’s Nest throughout 2019 by organizing and planning various fundraisers to support their amazing cause and program. Events included a summer car wash, various holiday raffle basket lotteries and quarterly happy hours.

In addition to collecting funds, many different toy/supply drives were hosted as well in order to provide The Sparrow’s Nest with as many resources as possible on top of monetary support. Gabriel Group associates also received the opportunity to tour the maternity home itself to get an idea of what day-to-day life is like for the mothers and babies who call The Sparrow’s Nest home and benefit directly from donations that are made.

Associates are motivated to continuing making a difference for Gabriel Group’s new local nonprofit partner organization as the company begins its next annual Pay-It-Forward push in 2020. Stay tuned to hear what group will be chosen in the next couple weeks on the Gabriel Group Facebook page!

New Year, New Website, New Capabilities

2020 is looking to be our most exciting year yet here at Gabriel Group! Between promising partnerships and expanded service offerings, we are continuing to band together as a company to make our clients’ messages our mission. And what does that mean exactly?

With the New Year comes multiple announcements we need to cover. So let’s go ahead and dive right in …

First off, we are extremely happy to debut a brand new website to our partners and friends alike – now live at www.gabrielgroup.com! Our goal with this new layout is to help the specific markets we work with more easily navigate our services and to help them in whatever way we can to achieve their goals.

On these dedicated pages, you will find everything from case studies to conference appearances and outlines of our expertise to testimonials from our biggest fans. And as usual, you will be able to find our latest news, thought leadership pieces and pertinent articles right here on our blog. We hope you’ll find this change beneficial to you and your organization – we can’t wait to see what you think!

Now on to our second line of business … we at Gabriel Group are very proud to announce that we are now a part of the OSG family. Along with our new sister company Diamond Communication Solutions, we are currently building a strategic partnership in order to offer a holistic direct response experience for our clients moving forward. We will preface this announcement by saying our day-to-day operations will remain business as usual, but we couldn’t be more excited about what the future holds now that our capabilities have increased exponentially and our capacity is booming as we speak (we’ve secured a neighboring building close by and are getting ready to staff a brand new production floor!).

We know it’s quite a significant way to ring in a new year, but what’s not to love? These amazing, new opportunities combined with the reliable, successful way we’ve done business for years leaves us nowhere to go but up, up and away. We hope you’ll join us on our journey!
