The Magnet Group (PPAI 338534, S11) has named Amber Dobson as the sixth recipient of its annual Fran Ford Award.
- The award honors the memory of Fran Ford, Jr., CAS, president of supplier Castelli (formerly a division of Magnet), who passed away in 2018.
- The Magnet Group employee selected for recognition embodies the outstanding characteristics that defined Ford, such as being a great friend, a valuable mentor, a willing volunteer inside and outside of the promotional products industry, and simply being kind and generous.
- Dobson was nominated by her TMG teammates in recognition of her volunteerism and dedication. For many years, she was the lead coordinator for the nonprofit We Care Volunteers, which helps to feed and care for those in the homeless community by donating food, organizing clothing drives and arranging haircuts. She even converted an old school bus into a mobile food truck to feed the homeless during the winter months.
