Our Community Service

While The Goulet Pen Company is an internet-based company, we're also heavily invested in supporting the Richmond, Virginia area we call home. After a year of full-time service, every team member has up to 40 paid hours per year to volunteer with a non-profit organization they're inspired by.

Rise Against Hunger

Rise Against Hunger

Our entire company volunteered in groups at Rise Against Hunger, packing meal kits to support their mission to distribute food and life-changing aid to the world’s most vulnerable. As a part of GPC's contribution to the community in 2019, we purchased and donated 2,808 meals to feed the hungry. We then went on site to pack all of the meals we purchased, which were then shipped out to a country in need.

Celebrate! RVA

Celebrate! RVA

Celebrate! RVA is a non-profit organization with a simple mission: to give disadvantaged children a memorable birthday in a safe and fun environment. Margaret recently volunteered to help decorate for a group birthday party at a local elementary school.

Volunteering at Schools

Volunteering at Schools

Jenn used service hours to spend 90 minutes at this nifty desk at her son’s middle school! She loves that she can use just a few hours of service time and doesn't have to find an entire day to set aside.

YMCA

YMCA

Last summer Katie volunteered at the YMCA Kinder Camp summer program, a day camp that provides activities for children, ages 2-5 years old. Her favorite part? "The kids! There’s nothing quite like the feeling that you have made a difference in the life of a child. Singing funny camp songs and helping to spark creativity."

Military Discount

We also appreciate our U.S. military service members by providing free USPS shipping to all APO addresses (no order minimum), as well as an extra discount for all active service members, veterans, reservists, and their dependents.
