Employee-Directed Giving Program Makes Contributions to Environmental, Medical Research, and Charitable Groups
(August 30, 2007) — The Cadmus Employee-Directed Giving Program gives our employee-owners the opportunity to influence which charities and non-profit organizations will receive financial contributions from the company. Employees propose worthy organizations and causes, and a volunteer committee recommends to senior management which ones should be funded. The latest contributions under this program went to:
- The Potomac Conservancy in Silver Spring, Maryland, a 10 year old land and watershed trust that seeks to protect riparian corridors and avoid pollution from runoff.
- Window on the Ossipee Mountains, a project of the Ossipee, New Hampshire, Conservation Commission to buy and permanently protect from development a 26.6 acre roadside parcel of land that overlooks the mountains, which are the subsurface remains of a massive volcano from 121 million years ago.
- The Jackson Landing Improvement Committee, formed by the town of Durham, New Hampshire, to identify water quality improvement and recreational projects on the Oyster River.
- The Alzheimer’s Association, the largest private investor in innovative research into Alzheimer’s and related disorders.
- The Pan-Mass Challenge, a 2-day bike-a-thon through 46 Massachusetts communities to raise funds for research at the Dana Farber Cancer Institute.
- The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, the world’s largest voluntary health organization dedicated to funding research into blood cancer and to providing education and services for patients.
- The Friends of Warm Hearth, an organization dedicated to helping Warm Hearth, the first long-term group home in Armenia, provide individualized holistic care to its eight disabled residents who have outgrown the country’s orphanage system.
