Arauco made a significant donation to the Amanda Riley Foundation, which provides for children and the families of children currently battling cancer. The foundation’s goal is to do things to put a smile on a child’s face and brighten their life.
With a lot of spirit and good humor, Arauco office workers raised US$ 1,757 which was matched by the company, adding a total donation of US$ 3,514.
Among the fundraising activities were raffles, bake sales, US$ 5 donations to wear jeans to work during Thanksgiving week, and even money donations to have each Business Unit Manager sing at the company’s Christmas party.
The effort generated a pleasant work environment and a lot of enthusiasm among workers, who enjoyed contributing to children in need of a smile.
