Cintas Corporation (Nasdaq: CTAS) today announced the top 10
finalists in its 10th annual Cintas Custodian of the Year contest.
From dressing up like Spiderman during recess to advocating for a
mosquito sprayer to protect children from bites, these custodians
are truly top-notch. From now through April 14, the public can vote
for their favorite custodian at custodianoftheyear.com.
“We received an abundance of nominations highlighting remarkable
custodians across the country,” said Christiny Betsch, Marketing
Manager, Cintas. “As always, it’s difficult to select the top 10,
but this year’s finalists stood out for their commitment, kindness
and determination.”
The greatest number of public votes determines the winner of the
Cintas Custodian of the Year contest. Cintas will award $10,000 to
the winning custodian and $5,000 in Cintas and Rubbermaid products
and services to the winner’s school. The winner’s school will also
receive a facility assessment and consulting package from ISSA, The
Worldwide Cleaning Industry Association, valued at $30,000 and
enrollment in the Global Biorisk Advisory Council (GBAC)
Fundamentals Online Course. The other nine finalists will receive
$1,000 each and complimentary tuition to one ISSA Cleaning
Management Institute (CMI) virtual training event, valued at
$1,500. The finalists’ schools will also receive a cleaning supply
package from Rubbermaid Commercial Products. New this year, the Top
3 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.
“We’re truly inspired by each of the finalists who do much more
than clean schools,” said John Barrett, Executive Director, ISSA.
“School custodians are beacons of light in their communities and
students look up to them as positive role models who lead by
example.”
