Community Service
Our staff members will become more involved in our community. At FirstChoice, we recognize the value of community involvement and in 2006 several employees will participate in organizations that enrich the quality of life in the Oshkosh area. It is important for all of us to "give back" to our community in recognition of our strong Oshkosh client base.
We eagerly look forward to serving the community and you in 2006.
Increased Community Involvement
As Past Chairman of Oshkosh Chamber of Commerce, and board member of Chamco, Bethel Foundation and the Boys and Girls Club, I have witnessed investments in Oshkosh that increase business opportunities and improve the quality of life.
My affiliations in Oshkosh Rotary Club, Leadership Oshkosh, Tempo International, the Oshkosh Area Community Foundation and the Christine Anne Center give me great satisfaction and provide a window for me to see generosity, compassion, commitment and a great hope for the well-being of our community.
I encourage everyone to be involved in organizations that inspire you, express your interests and afford you an outlet for your talents and skills. Your volunteer activities can make a significant difference in the lives of others and in our community.
