Good stewards

Duroc-Danner, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented: º£½Ç³Ô¹ÏÍøœBeing a multinational organisation, we strive to be good stewards, and this gives us the opportunity to positively impact the communities in which we operate.  As the holidays can be a difficult time for families in crisis situations, it is our wish to support their needs during a special time of year.  We also want to very heartfully thank our many employees and sponsors for their great enthusiasm and unrelenting support in helping create a very successful event.º£½Ç³Ô¹ÏÍø
