Mackie Monday | A Time to be Thankful
Another year has almost come and gone.
We are charging toward those final few weeks that usually hold family, travel, festivity, and cheerfulness. Amidst all the joy and excitement that comes this time each year, we are shadowed with the memory of tragedies that struck in 2017 – some affecting our own CES family, all affecting our communities.
As a company, we are in a fortunate position which allows us to support those around us in times of need and while there are many requests throughout the year, I hope you can all find pride in what you’ve built. It is you that has allowed such a difference to be made.
I hope you’ll join me in thanking one another for allowing us to be the kind of company that can support our communities. Charitable donations in 2017 include:
Disaster Relief Fund – $100,000
American Red Cross – $100,000
Dallas Children’s Advocacy Center – $50,000
Grand Prairie Fine Arts Academy – $50,000
REUNight – $50,000
Carry the Load – $25,000
Move for Minds – $10,000
North Texas Food Bank – $10,000
Children’s Medical Center Foundation – $10,000
Texas Police Athletic Federation – $5,000
I am thankful for our incredible vendors, which allow us to thrive and support our customers in ways others cannot. I am thankful for our customers, the teams of people that impact communities, change lives, and keep the lights on at CES. Most of all, I am thankful for your hard work, for your family’s support in what you do here, and for the loyalty and pride you bring in each day.
Make the last month of 2017 your best one yet!
