The employees at ConServe joined together in July to support American veterans for their many sacrifices.
The company’s Jeans For Charity program, along with the company’s “Matching Gift Program,” generously donated to veteran programs. The donations help provide much-needed financial backing for veteran programs within Buffalo and Rochester, New York, including: The Honor Flight of Buffalo and Rochester, Wings Flights of Hope, and the Rochester American Warriors Hockey (ROC Warriors) program
“Turning our organization’s ambitions into reality has been challenging due to the high costs associated with establishing and operating an ice hockey program,” said Nick Hart, board member and fundraising officer for the Rochester American Warriors. “This donation would allow us to purchase equipment, buy ice time, travel, and participate in tournaments that support various community causes, and ultimately it would give us the means to further our mission to see Veterans flourish after returning home.”
Rich Stewart, president and CEO of Honor Flight Rochester, thanked the ACA International member company for the generous support.
“This donation is fabulous and will fund five veterans to go on their flight to visit and reflect the memorial dedicated to them in Washington, D.C.,” Stewart said.
This ongoing initiative symbolizes ConServe’s commitment to its corporate mission of helping to improve the human condition.
“ConServe is committed to supporting and hiring military veterans and their families and offers our untiring gratitude for their personal sacrifices, dedication, service and commitment to our country,” said Jean Sheehan, director of talent acquisition.
