Beyond the commitments that we make to all of our customers every day, FORMost is also dedicated to giving back to our surrounding communities. Through FORMost Gives Back, our employees and leaders come together to volunteer and fundraise for numerous local, national, and international causes. At FORMost, giving back isn’t just something we do once a year, it’s part of the fabric of our company.
Our Causes
We are proud to support numerous organizations that help to make our city, our nation, and our world such wonderful places to live. Some of the organizations that we give back to include:
The Heather Baker Foundation
This breast cancer treatment funding and support organization, headquartered in Spring Grove, PA, was formed in memory of Heather Baker. Heather was a wonderful friend of FORMost who died of breast cancer in 2010. FORMost employees have volunteered at numerous Heather Baker Foundation events, in addition to making generous donations.
The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society
FORMost has supported this national organization on a local level through donating and attending the Light the Night event for survivors, families who have lost loved ones, and all of the brave warriors fighting blood cancer. FORMost founding partner Ira Dwoskin is a 20-year lymphoma survivor and has been an enthusiastic participant for the past several years.
The Hurwitz Breast Cancer Fund
FORMost employees have been walking and raising funds for the Pink Ribbon 5K for over 7 years. The Hurwitz Breast Cancer Fund at Frederick Memorial Hospital was established to ensure our community has access to the most innovative options in early detection and breast cancer treatment. Proceeds from events go straight to helping save lives in Frederick County, MD.
Susan G. Komen for the Cure
Susan G. Komen for the Cure is a premier national breast cancer research and awareness foundation. Our employees collectively raised $2,000 to participate in the 2009 Maryland Race for the Cure.
Children’s National Medical Center
Children’s National Medical Center is a provider of pediatric care for children throughout the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. Instead of purchasing client holiday gifts, FORMost made a substantial financial contribution to support the Children’s National Medical Center.

This Foundation offers an annual scholarship in his memory. FORMost participates in the annual golf fundraiser in addition to making financial contributions.
