“School custodians do more than keep facilities clean and safe,
they’re often support systems for the community,” said John Rudy,
Senior Marketing Director of Cintas. “It’s clear Bob cares about
the well-being of each student at his school and does all he can to
help them succeed.”
Bob is not just a custodian. He is a friend, a support system,
and the students’ supporter. Students say, “You can always count on
him.” When they come back late from a track meet, for example, he
will go out of his way to unlock the doors so they can gather their
belongings before heading home. He views his job as not just about
keeping the school clean. He works to make genuine, meaningful
connections with each student and staff member. Every year, Bob
even gives the dance team an incredible motivational speech to
excite student-athletes before competitions. He shows he cares
about every single student.
“Custodians are vital in helping keep school facilities clean
and safe,” said John Barrett, Executive Director of ISSA. “Over the
last 100 years, ISSA has been focused on evolving the cleaning
industry for the better. Our training services for this year’s
finalists will help them improve their skills and elevate their
facilities.”
In addition to the $10,000 cash prize, Bob will also receive
$5,000 in Cintas and Rubbermaid Commercial Products and services
for his school. His school also receives a complete facility
assessment valued at $20,000, in partnership with the Cleaning
Industry Management Standard, advanced by the Global Biorisk
Advisory Council certification from The Worldwide Cleaning Industry
Association, ISSA. Cintas will also award the winning school a
pizza party for all staff and students. Again, this year, Bob,
along with the two other top three finalists, will receive an
all-expense-paid trip for two to the ISSA Show North America in Las
Vegas in November where they’ll be celebrated for their
accomplishments. Stay tuned for an announcement on who the lucky
other finalists are who will join Bob in Las Vegas!
“Bob Galewski has proven to be an outstanding custodian and
well-deserving of the Custodian of the Year grand prize,” added
Robert Posthauer, SVP & GM, Rubbermaid Commercial Products.
