We’re proud of our involvement with the Children’s Miracle Network and know that the services they provide change the lives of countless families in our community. Recently, First Source AVP of Marketing and Communications Kristy Nole and her husband Jason had a first hand experience with the services that the Children’s Miracle Network provides. They have shared their story in this video. As well their daughter Alannah is featured as a 2010 Miracle Child.

First Source has been a supporter of the Faxton St. Luke’s Healthcare Foundation and specifically Children’s Miracle Network (CMN) for over a decade. This year, as we’ve done in previous years as well, First Source contributed $7,500 to the Foundation as a sponsor of the CMN telethon, Golf Tournament on June 21st and the Miracle Home Makeover. We had volunteers manning the phone booths at the telethon and sell CMN balloons in our branches to raise even more funds. We’re proud of the services they provide and do our best to show our support year round.

First Source was proud to be the Corporate Luminary Sponsor of The Ride For Missing Children-CNY 2010. In addition to our Corporate sponsorship, First Source employees raised even more on their own. All together First Source has contributed just under $23,000 to this years Ride.

In addition to our Rider participation our organization also has taken on the following responsibilities in volunteering for THe Ride and for the NAtional Center For Missing & Exploited Children:

• 6 First Source employees trained to use NCMEC Child ID Kits
• Volunteered at the Whims N Doodle Safety Event – Helping with Child ID Kits
• Held our First Source Safety Day event – child ID Kits
• Will be volunteering at the 2010 Boilermaker Kids Walk
• Provided 13 Bike loans at 0% interest for Riders to get new bikes
• Two First Source Riders went to the Troop D Barracks at 4:00 a.m. to help unload bikes the day of The Ride

A big Thank You goes out to all of our Staff and all of the Volunteers and Riders who made The Ride for Missing Children a resounding success. We’re proud of you and the impact you have in bringing missing children home.
