Graphics Systems Employees Climb for Charity
Chicago, IL – January 4, 2012
Three members of the Graphics Systems’ business development team, Scott Howse, Rob Bouton, and Jason Rose are training to race up 94 floors for the Hustle up the Hancock charity event in Chicago, IL on February 26, 2012.
They are among 4,000 participants to race to the top of the John Hancock Center to raise funds for the Respiratory Health Association of Metropolitan Chicago (RHAMC).
Graphics Systems’ Sales Manager, Tim Engel, says, “Their voluntary dedication is admirable. Running up 1,632 steps is impressive and the rest of the Graphics Systems’ team will be rooting for them!”
Bouton is looking forward to the event, “As a sales team, we’re always looking for ways to be more involved within the Illinois community in which we work. The chance to do something different for a good cause is a great opportunity.”
To support the Graphics Systems’ team, please visit their donation page at http://hustleupthehancock.org/ and search their team name, “Suckond Wind,” to make a contribution.
