Current Involvement
Providence Cheque Presentation
On December 16, 2011, a group of Arcis employees joined the children and staff at McKenzie Towne School to present a cheque for $20,000. Brad Torry, President and CEO believes that every child deserves the best opportunity to succeed in life, and the efforts of Providence’s Early Intervention programs are paramount to providing this to the children. Arcis has been supporting Providence for many years through donations, special events, and volunteering. Click here to learn more about Providence.
