We believe that giving back to the community in which we work and live is very important. Some of our many contributions this year have included throwing a pizza party for a local girls basketball team and cheering them on at the game, partnering and donating at Jump Rope For Heart, donating to a local food bank, donating and walking in the Making Strides Illinois Breast Cancer Walk, teaching good oral hygiene habits to the public, as well as sponsoring local charities and schools.
The entire team went to Sangamon grade school for their reading program. Dr Shafer read "A Fine Fine School" to over 400 kids! We all had SO much fun! Thank you Mr. Cabutti and the entire school for letting us be a part of your reading program! See the pictures from the assembly below.
