The holidays are a time for cheer, joy, and giving. Here at the Hands-On Labs office we want to share that spirit with our community, which is the Denver metropolitan area. That is why our product marketer, Kacy Bill, set up our office’s charity drive! Actually, she sets up this charity drive every year!
“I try to pick charitable organizations that are either in our community, or an organization that someone in the office is passionate about,” Kacy explained. “This year we are supporting GOOD Bags, the Humane Society of the South Platte Valley, and the Parker Task Force.”
The office was divided into four separate teams that competed to bring in the most materials/donations for these three organizations. There was no official prize for winning this competition, but the office is quite competitive when it comes to these things so no prize was really needed. Lanier Lopez, a customer support representative and leader of the winning team, had the following to say:
“I have been very fortunate in my life that I have never had to ask anyone for anything. I have always been able to provide for myself and family. There are too many people in our country that are not as fortunate and need assistance. In the end, the basic human needs for anyone can be as simple as getting a good shower or being able to brush your teeth.”
Overall, our charity drive this year was a huge success!
