REINVESTMENT

With every new project Garda completes, it seeks to reinvest a portion of its proceeds back to the community in which that project was completed with the help of its nonprofit company.   

 

Continuing to establish strong partnerships with local leaders, schools, and businesses​ is very important to Garda's reinvestment program and achieving overall community sustainability.
