Allen Press and Employees Make Significant Contributions in 2009 to the Lawrence Community

Allen Press employees annually choose charitable organizations to support through various fundraising activities.  In 2009 employees raised over $12,500.00 for five local charities.

Through paycheck deductions and other fundraising activities, Allen Press employees made donations to Cooper’s Cause, the Douglas County Senior Services, the Lawrence Humane Society and the United Way.  Annual holiday charitable activities included toy collections for Toys for Tots, a food drive for Ballard Community Services. 

In addition to employee contributions, the company made an annual holiday donation to the National Alliance to End Homelessness, on behalf of its customers as well as over $14,000.00 to other charitable causes throughout the year.

Charities for 2010 were recently selected by employees and fundraising activities will soon begin for the Lawrence Humane Society, Boys and Girls Club and Cooper’s Cause, as well as the holiday donations.
