The award was presented during this year\u2019s annual PuroClean International Convention, recognizing the duo\u2019s unwavering dedication to community service and local engagement, including standout efforts like supporting Hawaii\u2019s Annual Feed-a-Thon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Selected from among hundreds of exceptional franchise locations across the U.S., PuroClean of The Big Island was recognized for embodying the mission of PuroClean Cares, the brand\u2019s nationwide commitment that empowers Franchise Owners who serve their communities with passion and purpose. From disaster relief and charitable drives to year-round participation in causes that matter, Gregory and Christopher consistently go above and beyond to make a meaningful impact through initiatives like the PuroClean Cares National Superhero Day campaign and many others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMy wife and I are both cancer survivors, so our main focus is to help both other survivors and anyone currently battling through it,\u201d <strong>said Arianoff.<\/strong> \u201cOutside of that, we want to help our community. Everyone thinks Hawaii is a beautiful vacation spot, full of sand and beaches, but that\u2019s only one side of the island. The side we reside on is one of the top ten poorest places in the U.S., and that\u2019s why we focus on supporting and sponsoring every community event we can. Mahalo to everyone who helped us achieve this mission.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gregory, a husband and father of two, devotes much of his time working with organizations in the Hilo community. As a cancer survivor, he channels his gratitude into action as a local leader for the American Cancer Society, supporting their efforts through fundraising and volunteer work. Together, he and Christopher actively engage in numerous PuroClean Cares campaigns throughout the year. Last year, PuroClean of the Big Island supported their adopted air rifle team of St. Joseph School in Hilo for their yearly PuroClean Cares Adopt A Classroom campaign, replacing outdated gear with brand-new equipment to help students succeed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cEach year, the PuroClean Cares Award honors those who go above and beyond in their commitment to making a difference, and Gregory and Christopher embody that spirit,\u201d <strong>said Steve White, President and COO of PuroClean<\/strong>. \u201cTheir commitment to giving back and supporting their community reflects the heart of our brand: integrity, community, and hard work. We are incredibly proud to recognize their efforts and grateful to have such inspiring individuals representing PuroClean in Hawaii.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information about PuroClean of The Big Island, call <a href=\"tel:+18084604400\" class=\"phone-link\">(808) 460-4400<\/a> or visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/bigisland\/\">https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/bigisland\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gregory Arianoff and Christopher Sibel Honored with Community Charitable Involvement Award at PuroClean International Convention PuroClean, one of the country\u2019s leading property restoration and remediation franchises, is proud to announce<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":871,"featured_media":0,"template":"","blog-category":[],"class_list":["post-19975","blog","type-blog","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/hilo-hi-puroclean-the-big-island\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/blog\/19975","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/hilo-hi-puroclean-the-big-island\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/blog"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/hilo-hi-puroclean-the-big-island\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/blog"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/hilo-hi-puroclean-the-big-island\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/871"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/hilo-hi-puroclean-the-big-island\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/blog\/19975\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/hilo-hi-puroclean-the-big-island\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=19975"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"blog-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/hilo-hi-puroclean-the-big-island\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/blog-category?post=19975"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
