Community involvement

All Great Western Flooring employees – including owner Steve Chirico – are devoted to the communities we serve.

Beginning the day we opened, the Naperville region has given us the support and opportunities we needed to grow into the family-owned local fixture we’ve become. Helping our community prosper in return is our privilege, and we intend to continue giving back to the towns we appreciate.

Here are just a few of the ways we strive to say thank you to our community:

• NCO YOUTH AND FAMILY SERVICES
  NCO Youth & Family Services was founded in 1971 by a group of concerned parents and community and religious leaders who saw the need for local professional services for youth and their families. Working cooperatively with local organizations, NCO has helped lead the development of programs that encourage positive change including counseling, education and housing for local families.
• SPRING AHEAD 5K & 10K RUNS
  Created and chaired by GWF Owner and President Steve Chirico, this race has raised more than $150,000 for NCO since its inception.
• (Steve Chirico: Board of Directors (two terms, six total years), Board of Directors Secretary (two years), Advisory Board (current))
• NAPERVILLE RESPONDS
  Founded in October 2005 after Hurricane Katrina, Naperville Responds helps raise funds for the rebuilding of Pass Christian, Mississippi. The Naperville Responds development team includes local business leaders, associations, officials and residents. All members are volunteers, and 100% of every dollar goes toward the rebuilding effort.
• (Steve Chirico: Past Chairman (three years))
• NORTH CENTRAL COLLEGE
  Great Western Flooring recycles all carpet remnants into rugs for dorm rooms and sells them on move-in day at NCC. The full sale price of these rugs goes toward NCC Student Affairs. To date, GWF has helped raise more than $10,000 for the Residence Life Fund.
