Bank employees gift big sum to United Way
The Bank of America Foundation of Orange County, which is based in
Newport Beach, donated a check for nearly $800,000 to the United Way
of Orange County in August.
The money was collected from Bank of America associates through
both payroll and one-time donations and then distributed to local
United Way organizations.
Bank of America distributed checks totaling $8.9 million to 43
United Way agencies throughout California as part of a statewide
effort to make a difference in local communities.
The foundation grant is part of the company’s annual United Way
contributions.
Bank of America has about 4,400 domestic offices, 13,000 ATMs, 30
international offices in more than 150 countries and an Internet web
sit that provides services for more than 3.8 million users.
Apartment company gives tenants flags
Arnel Management Company of Costa Mesa will distribute 5,100
American flags to residents in each of their apartments properties on
Tuesday and ask them to display the flags in the front of their
apartments in order to pay tribute to the victims of Sept. 11.
The 150 Arnel employees that will help residents display their
flags will be wearing an American flag lapel pin, which they are
welcomed to wear for the rest of the year, and will be encouraging
residents to give blood at a local Red Cross facility.
The company was started by George L. Argyros, the U.S. Ambassador
to Spain and Andorra, in 1967 and currently manages 19 apartment
properties in Orange and Los Angeles Counties.
