Locally Sourced Kindness
We have asked our employees which organizations they supported this year and would like to encourage our readers to support them too!

Jam With GFF
From time to time, we like to share the music we listen to with our coworkers. New albums and new artists are currency for conversations about creative accomplishment and serve as the mood-shifting push that we need to find our own ideas.

Kitchen tables and home offices have become our new workstations and music is providing the right environmental mask to transform our homes into proper work spaces.
