One of those activities is supporting our troops and their families. We’ve organized care-package mailings for soldiers in Iraq, supported the Life with Cancer program, sponsored military family support events at Army installations, and donated items to wounded soldiers recovering at Walter Reed Army Medical Center. We also support a variety of local and national charities such as The Salvation Army, CharityWorks and the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Program. Our employees participate in Ivymount School’s Transition-to-Work Program for special students and sponsor a variety of events that raise money for diabetes, breast cancer awareness and research.
These activities do more than promote goodwill in the community, they reflect our shared values and build a sense of purpose among our people. Our community service also reminds us that we’re about more than just profits – we’re committed to making our communities and the world a better place.
