From a native of Puerto Rico fundraising and volunteering for Hurricane Maria recovery to a driver who rescued a 92-year-old

man trapped inside a house on fire, Cintas Corporation announces the winners of its second annual Everyday Impact ™ Hero Program.

The program celebrates individuals who make a real impact in the workplace and beyond. The 10 winners will be featured in the new 2019 Design Collective By Cintas catalog, which will be available in February.

We’re proud to honor them and hope to inspire others to make a real difference in their workplace and community.”
