Our Community

Great Lakes Construction Co. is proud to support the Alzheimer's Association through meaningful initiatives that bring our team together for a vital cause. One of our signature efforts is participating in a company volunteer walk on The Longest Day, held annually on June 21st. Over the past three years, our employees, friends, and families have collectively raised over $10,000 for this incredible cause, with Great Lakes matching every dollar raised by our team.

This initiative holds a special place in our hearts, as we understand the profound impact Alzheimer’s has on our employees and their loved ones. The walk takes place at the picturesque Lakewood Solstice Steps, a project completed by Great Lakes Construction in 2015, adding an extra layer of pride to our involvement. Supporting the Alzheimer's Association allows us to honor those affected while uniting as a company to help make a difference.

In 2024, Great Lakes Construction Co. proudly hosted its first-ever bake sale to benefit Medina County Hospice. Thanks to the generous donations from our employees and their families, we raised an impressive $890. With the company match, our total contribution amounted to an incredible $1,780!

The success of the bake sale was made possible by our talented and dedicated bakers, which included employees, grandmas, daughters, spouses, sisters, mothers, and mothers-in-law. The treats were delicious and brought our team closer together for a cause that touches many lives.

We are excited to continue making a difference and look forward to future efforts that support Medina County Hospice and the valuable work they do in our community!

Great Lakes Construction Co. is proud to continue supporting the Feeding Medina County Food Drive, with our incredible employees coming together to make a meaningful difference. This year, we collected both monetary donations and non-perishable food items, showcasing the generosity and compassion of our team.

Thanks to the dedication of our employees, we were able to make a substantial donation to support those in need. This collective effort reflects our ongoing commitment to creating a positive impact in the community and ensuring that no one goes without during challenging times. We are grateful for the opportunity to give back.

Great Lakes is proud to participate in the United Way Stuff the Bus Program each year. Whether volunteering or raising money for this great cause, our employees continue to provide essential resources for children to start their school year off strong.

The Great Lakes Construction Co. team proudly participates in the Wounded Warrior Project’s Carry Forward 5k. This event allows us to raise awareness and show our unwavering support for the sacrifices made by our soldiers.

We are deeply humbled and privileged to have several military reservists and veterans on the Great Lakes team, and their service continues to inspire us every day. Participating in this event is just one of the many ways we honor and give back to those who have dedicated their lives to protecting our freedom. We remain committed to supporting the Wounded Warrior Project and ensuring that our veterans receive the recognition and care they deserve.
