Dear Colleagues,
Each year, Abt staff support a number of community organizations that align with our mission. Last year we all worked together to support a “4 Weeks of Giving” campaign focused on hunger. This year our company-wide campaign will focus on “Helping Improve the Lives of Children” from now till December 31st.
Whether you’re in Atlanta, Brisbane, or Tanzania, there are many ways to participate in this year’s campaign. Below are wonderful options, both local and international, for supporting some worthy organizations.
