EGG HARBOR TOWNSHIP, N.J., July 28, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- NEST, a leading integrated facilities management company on the frontlines of helping the retail industry resume operations amidst the pandemic, announced they are donating funds to charitable causes across the country. The beneficiaries will be selected by NEST's clients.

Through their "NEST Nurtures" philanthropic program, NEST is committing over $70,000 to charitable programs and nonprofits in 2020.
