Every year the employees at Groom Energy in Beverly get creative for charity!
They sold lemonade, searched under the couch for loose change, and sold unused stuff on Craigslist.
It added up and all the funds raised were matched by the company and then donated to Pets for Vets. Thank you Groom Energy!

The Friends of Rachel is a challenge in honor of Rachel Joy Scott who was one of the 13 victims killed at Columbine High School shooting in 1999. Her family started (to) the challenge for people to become more aware & compassionate to others and put an end to bullying. They believed if one person could make a difference, it would start a chain reaction.  We share the same belief.
