CALGARY, July 4, 2013 /CNW/ - Pason Systems Inc. (TSX: PSI) is donating
$100,000 to the Calgary Foundation to support their flood relief
program, and is matching employee donations to the Foundation up to
another $100,000. Additionally, Pason is facilitating volunteer efforts
for employees to actively assist residents in flood impacted areas with
remediation work.
"In the wake of these devastating floods, it is heartening to see the
community spirit and kindness of southern Albertans as they band
together to help and support each other. As a responsible corporate
citizen, Pason would like to do its part to aid in the recovery
efforts," said Marcel Kessler, President and CEO of Pason.
The Calgary Foundation has established a Flood Recovery and Rebuilding
Fund to support Alberta communities (including Calgary, High River,
Canmore, and surrounding First Nations) through recovery and the next
wave of needs in the area. The Fund does not charge an administrative
fee or a credit card transaction fee, so 100% of donations are directed
to areas in need. The Calgary Foundation provides funding and support
to shelter and food programs, rebuilding neighborhoods and public
spaces, and addressing mental health concerns. For more information and
