Charity Involvement
Barrie Christmas Cheer
With happy hearts, representatives from Busch Systems unloaded a van full of toys and handed over a cash donation of $5,664.50 to Barrie Christmas Cheer. Our 2011 donation exceeds previous donations, something we are very proud of. Busch Systems is a longtime supporter of Christmas Cheer, an organization that provides families in need with both toys and food during the holiday season. Knowing our charitable efforts will undoubtedly brighten a child’s Christmas is all the thanks we here at Busch Systems need. Contributing to Christmas Cheer will continue to be a Busch Systems annual tradition.
Barrie Dragon Boat Festival
The 2011 Barrie Dragon Boat Festival took place on Saturday, August 27th and Busch Systems, once again, rowed for the Give to Live Foundation. This year we raised an astonishing $7,037.00, surpassing last year's total! In addition to capturing the GOLD Consolation prize, the Busch rowers were also awarded the Greater Barrie Chamber of Commerce Small Business Challenge Cup - an honor we graciously accepted.
Movember
Shown above are the proud members of our 2011 Movember team. This year our ‘Armour Lip Charmours’ grew their donations to an impressive $3,609.00! Busch Systems participates annually in the Movember campaign which raises both money and awareness for men’s health, specifically prostate cancer, by growing mustaches and collecting donations. Thank you to the participants for yet another successful year – as well as shaving promptly on December 1st!
Local Charities
To date, Busch Systems staff has raised, through various internal events over $1,650 for charities such as Furry Friends, Big Brothers/Big Sisters of Barrie Bowl for Kids Sake and Red Cross for Haiti Relief and most recently The Barrie Food Bank.
The United Way
Each year Busch Systems makes a generous donation to the local United Way to help build a better community. Our 2012 payroll deductions from Busch Systems staff totals $6,005.00 with an 81.6% employee participation rate. In addition, Busch Systems will be adding a $2,500.00 donation for a grand total of $8,505.00 towards United Way. We are proud to continually support our community through such an admirable charity.
Sleeping Children Around the World
In 2010 Busch Systems donated $5,000 to the charitable organization Sleeping Children Around the World. All donations go towards bedkits for children in underdeveloped and developing countries. Each bedkit consists of a mat or mattress, pillow, sheet, blanket, mosquito net (if applicable), clothes outfit, towel and school supplies.
