AD Partners with Case for Smiles in Giving Back Event

July 26, 2024

On June 12th, AD associates from the U.S., Canada, and Mexico came together for a heartwarming Giving Back event. They supported Case for Smiles, a volunteer organization dedicated to uplifting young patients and their families in hospitals worldwide by donating whimsical pillowcases, coping boxes with helpful activities for siblings, sharing relevant resources, and more.

Case for Smiles brought over 35 volunteers at AD Wayne to facilitate this incredible event. Associates pinned and sewed over 160 pillowcases and made over 160 coping boxes. Each box is filled with toys, games, and resources to help families through this challenging time.

AD presented Case for Smiles representatives with a generous check for over $15,000, which was fundraised and donated by AD associates. This contribution underscores AD’s profound commitment to giving back.

Case for Smiles has had a meaningful impact not only in the Philadelphia area but also throughout North America. Every month, the organization donates 1,200 pillowcases in the Philadelphia area. By the end of this year, it will have donated 3 million pillowcases since its founding.

AD’s Chairman and CEO, Bill Weisberg, emphasized the company’s dedication to community service.

“At AD, serving others isn’t just something we do; it’s at the core of our mission,” said Weisberg. “Our Giving Back Committee is dedicated to giving our associates opportunities to volunteer and make a real impact in our local communities year-round. Supporting Case for Smiles is a perfect example of the meaningful contributions we’re proud to make.”
