FirstOnSite Restoration has selected the Women in Insurance Cancer Crusade (WICC) as its chosen charity for national sponsorship.  FirstOnSite is WICC’s newest national sponsor at the platinum level, representing a commitment of Cdn$45,000 over three years.
“As an organization we wanted to financially support an established and proven charitable movement,” said Ken Zardo, vice president of national sales and marketing at FirstOnSite.
“I began supporting WICC in 2003 with fundraising and have received a WICC Gold Flame Award in recognition for these efforts. Little did I suspect that in 2004, my own wife Rhonda would contract breast cancer,” Zardo said. “Over the next four and one-half years our family did what most families do, sought to bear the burden of our personal experience and keep it hidden from those we encountered during that painful time. Rhonda fought this personal struggle with profound grace and valour but succumbed in the summer of 2008.”
FirstOnSite is honoured to join those WICC volunteers and partners and is extremely committed to maximizing its activities through its more than1,200 employees at the local, regional and corporate levels to further enhance its contribution, he added.
