'Tis the Season for Giving
December 12, 2011 - The Holiday Season is a time for stepping back, reflecting and concentrating on what matters most. For those of us in the pursuit to understand disease and discover and develop new therapies, it's also a time for remembering how far we've come and for refocusing our efforts for the new year.
Though most of all, the holidays are a time for celebrating our most time-honored tradition of giving. Giving gifts, giving thanks, and for Charles River: GIVING ONE™.
Launched in 2008, the GIVING ONE™ campaign was designed to raise awareness of and provide financial support for scientific research.
In the spirit of giving, and in lieu of sending holiday cards this season, Charles River will make donations through our GIVING ONE™ campaign to various nonprofit organizations, including the Alzheimer's Drug Discovery Foundation, American Association for Cancer Research, American Diabetes Association and American Heart Association.
In our continuous effort to support you in the development and delivery of therapeutics, we are proud to continue this Charles River tradition of holiday giving.
Happy holidays from everyone here at Charles River.
