BrightFields, Inc.

Companies often try to find the words to describe their culture. We at BrightFields often describe ours as a team, or a family. But those words don't fully capture the wonderful hearts of our people. In the days following Hurricane Helene's devastation, our employees created a donation drive and on October 12th, we shipped 14 boxes full of much needed items to Western North Carolina to help those affected by the hurricane. THIS is BrightFields! BrightFields is people coming together to help those whom they may have never met when they need it most. We are a firm dedicated to making the community and those around us better than we found them.  We truly are Team BrightFields!

Congratulations Kathy! https://lnkd.in/esA_G3Bx
