FGI gives back to the community
FGI Research is an active member of its local community. Several employees donate their time and resources to local charities, including: Alliance Medical Ministry, Toys for Tots, Durham Crimestoppers, and Urban Ministries of Durham. FGI supports its employees’ efforts and offers its own donations in an effort to continue giving back to the community.
Alliance Medical Ministry is a faith-based organization that serves the working uninsured of Wake County by offering a medical clinic and pharmacy.
Started by the US Marine Corps Reserve, Toys for Tots collects new, wrapped toys during the months leading up to the holiday season and distributes them to underprivileged children in the community.
Durham Crimestoppers is a non-profit organization whose mission is to involve the community actively in the arrest and indictment of criminal offenders, using anonymous sources and offering cash incentives to participants.
Union Mission Ministries is a faith-driven organization that provides physical and spiritual support to the homeless and needy in local communities.
