ENDEAVOR TELECOM'S ATLANTA-BASED EMPLOYEES COLLECT 1,400 MEALS IN FOOD DRIVE FOR ATLANTA COMMUNITY FOOD BANK
Atlanta, GA, January 14, 2008 - Atlanta-based Endeavor Telecom, The Telecom Truck Roll Company of Choice for carriers, service providers, VARs, and equipment manufacturers, today announced that its Atlanta headquarters' employees have collected 2,731 pounds of food items in the company's December food drive, and have donated the proceeds to the Atlanta Community Food Bank (ACFB). Endeavor employees' efforts and contributions will supply 1,400 meals to low-income Georgians through ACFB's network of more than 800 nonprofit partner agencies throughout Atlanta and North Georgia.
"I know I speak for all of Endeavor's employees in saying that it was an honor and a pleasure to participate in this successful food drive – especially during the month of December when the importance of giving to others takes on a special significance," said Jennifer Baron, Manager of Executive Initiatives for Endeavor Telecom and food drive coordinator." Our team members all have a sense of community spirit towards the Atlanta area, and we hope our food drive was able to brighten a few faces at this special time of year."
To help ensure a highly successful campaign, Endeavor executives sponsored employee teams to create a strong spirit of intra-company rivalry and friendly competition. With a final total of over 2,700 pounds of food contributions, the strategy was a success.
The company's successful food drive follows on the heels of an October announcement that Endeavor Telecom's Atlanta headquarters' staff members were lending their time, energy and support to assist Habitat for Humanity in the building of two homes in the Atlanta area.
