We welcomed the students from the U of U David Eccles School of Business to our office. They came for a tour of the company and to learn about how Les Olson Company operates from the company’s management, as part of their business education.
Many Les Olson Company’s employees volunteered as part of the United Way’s Day of Caring, their largest annual volunteer event.
This summer we had the honor of being the official sponsor of the Utah Food Bank‘s Summer Business Food Drive for the 2nd year in a row. In conjunction, we held our 4th annual Summer Business Food Drive, encouraging our employees to give time, food and money to the Utah Food Bank and Three Square Food Bank in Las Vegas.
It’s particularly rewarding to give back to others during the Holiday Season, perhaps because it’s the time of year when we’re all reminded of how much we have and how lucky we are. This is the second year that the company has sponsored the Salvation Army‘s Angel Tree Program in partnership with KUTV, with employees in our Wasatch Front branches, volunteering as well as donating money and adopting angels. Our Las Vegas employees teamed up to “adopt a family” through Catholic Charities and a large majority of the company’s male employees participated in “Novembeard,” growing their beards out in the month of November and making donations toward relief for people in the Philippines following the hurricane.
