10/1/2009 |  Arora raises money for the American Cancer Society

Arora launched its SHOOT FOR THE CURE campaign to raise money for the American Cancer Society in honor of Keith Laird, our coworker and friend, who was diagnosed with cancer.

Keith attends the National Matches, a shooting competition, considered to be the “World Series of Shooting Sports” in Camp Perry (Ohio) each summer. He competes in several contests, including the M16 EIC (Excellence in Competition) Match.

Arora employees sponsored Keith’s performance, pledging per point or lump sum, in this skill challenge. The company graciously agreed to match the revenue collected.

In October, the firm presented Keith with a check at its quarterly meeting. There was 99.99% company-wide participation rate - proof that we really are like a family, and we depend on each other for support and encouragement.
