Each year, our team comes together to support a local organization through our annual Piper Gives Back fundraiser, and for the third year, we were honored to partner with Operation PAR, Inc..

Operation PAR’s residential program allows parents undergoing substance abuse treatment to remain with their children, keeping families together during one of the most critical seasons of their lives.

This year, our team adopted 10 children through Operation PAR’s Angel Tree program.

Thanks to employee donations, we were able to provide toys, learning materials, diapers, wipes, and other essentials to support these families during the holidays.

We grateful for organizations like Operation PAR that are doing life-changing work in our communities.

🎉🎉FIRST PLACE!

This year, Piper Fire decorated and donated a tree to the Arc of Tampa Bay's annual Festival of Trees. Our very own Alicia took the reins and decorated a beautiful tree called "The Bird House". Not only did our tree win First Place, it was purchased by Ruth Eckerd Hall and will be displayed there this holiday season!

We are proud to support this event, as the Arc of Tampa Bay has been a customer of ours for over 20 years. Participating in this event has been a long-standing goal.

Thank you, Alicia for your hard work on this beautiful tree - we are so happy to see you get recognition for your creativity!!
