Camels with a Cause is a charity fundraising organization, empowered by a staff of more than 60 at cj Advertising, whose goal is to help raise much needed funds for worthy causes every year.
A FISHy Food Drive
|
cj’s FISH! group sponsored a friendly food drive competition between each of its departments prior to Thanksgiving. All of the goods collected at the agency were donated to Second Harvest Food Bank to help feed families during the holiday season. Whether bitten by the competition bug or pulled at the heartstrings to help families in need, cj staffers met the challenge with gusto.
Six teams participated in this high-spirited competition over a 15 day period with the winning team (the Media department) earning home-baked apple pie and cheesecake.
