Barnes Foundation Makes Holiday Donations to to Local Charities

Thanks to the generosity of ProMed employees throughout the year, the Barnes Foundation, established by ProMed's president and founder, Terry Barnes, will be making donations to two local charities this holiday season.

Each  month, ProMed employees have the option of donating $5 to the Barnes Foundation in order to wear jeans to work on Fridays. This year, "Jean Fridays" raised a total of $3,000.

The funds will be donated to the George Werden Buck Boys & Girls Club in Joliet, Illinois, who will put the donation toward their Toys for Toys program, and the The Children's Enrichment Foundation, a charitable foundation managed by Children's Habilitation Center in Harvey, Illinois.

"It is so rewarding to know that when we collect together, we can make a real difference at such a wonderful time of year," said Barnes Foundation President Amy Gollan.
