Volunteer of the Month - December 2011
Vail Resorts Echo and Covidien Corporate Volunteer Teams
Two corporate volunteer teams generously gave of their time during the busy holiday season to spread good cheer.
Vail Resorts (pictured left) brought its human resource team of energetic workers led by Mark Gasta to our runaway and homeless youth shelter. They trimmed a tree, decorated the home, insulated our windows and gave the entire house a deep clean. We loved their energy and good humor!
For our residential program, the kids were treated to a beautifully decorated home courtesy of Covidien and Barbara Hey, internal communications director. Her team surprised our staff and residents not only with the sights and smells of Christmas but also donated an Xbox, gift cards and delicious treats. It was a great surprise for our kids to come home and witness the generosity of others on their behalf.
Attention Homes welcomes the opportunity to host corporate and service teams for rewarding and productive team building experiences. To both Vail and Covidien, thank you for shining a bright light during what can be a difficult time for our kids during the holiday season.
