AMERISOURCE EMPLOYEES LEND HELPING HANDS
APRIL 2016
5th Annual Walk for the Woods Project
For the fourth consecutive year, Amerisource was again a sponsor of the annual Walk For The Woods Project on April 23 in Houston.
The 5K journey through Houston’s historic East End is the major fund-raising initiative for The Woods Project, a comprehensive program of wilderness education experiences oriented toward the development of life skills in youth from disadvantaged backgrounds.
“The Walk for the Woods Project was an excellent time to get out and about in the Houston area,” said Amerisource team member Erica Gongora. “I enjoyed seeing and learning about the beautiful landmarks. My favorite part was the old fire station. One word: Amazing! I will definitely be going next year.”
