ServiceMaster Makes it a "Lovely Day" for Communities Nationwide

MEMPHIS, TN--(Marketwired - August 19, 2015) - ServiceMaster Global Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: SERV), a leading provider of essential residential and commercial services, will send a sea of blue across 10 U.S. cities this Friday, August 21. As part of the company's annual We Serve Day, employees will participate in volunteer efforts from Miami to Phoenix, all with a goal of giving back to the communities in which they live and work.

"Service is the heart of our business -- to our customers and the communities we serve," said Rob Gillette, ServiceMaster's chief executive officer. "It's all about giving back to organizations that help strengthen the communities where we live and work. And what better way to celebrate our legacy than by giving back through projects that make a difference to our community partners and to those they help."

From care packages to food sorting, from lunch preparation to wish granting for children with a life-threatening medical condition -- ServiceMaster employees plan to make an impact across the country with more than two dozen projects.

Volunteer efforts include projects to support:

• Memphis: DeNeuville Learning Center, FedEx Family House, Habitat for Humanity of Greater Memphis, Junior Achievement of the Mid-South, Le Bonheur Children's Hospital, Memphis Child Advocacy Center, Mid-South Food Bank, National Civil Rights Museum, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, The Orpheum, Youth Villages and Make-A-Wish of the Mid-South

• Madison, Wis.: Ronald McDonald House
• Miami: His House Children's Home
• Phoenix: Refugee Focus
• Tampa: Habitat for Humanity of Hillsborough County Florida and A Kids Place

"I think many of our volunteers agree: This is the best day of the year," said Velvet Graham, senior director of events and community relations. "While our business is to serve residential and commercial customers year-round, it always feels good to take time away and go the extra mile for the communities we love."
