Atlas Van Lines Movers Sponsor Children of Employees and Military to Attend ProCamps Across the U.S.
Evansville, IN (PRWEB) July 30, 2013 -- Three agents of Atlas Van Lines, one of the nation’s leading moving companies, demonstrated appreciation for both employees and local military by sponsoring local children to attend youth sports events by ProCamps Worldwide, an organization that hosts events across the United States to provide youth the opportunity to participate in instruction and fun with current and former professional athletes. Each Atlas agent sponsored five children – a group comprised of children of active-duty military families, children of local employees and children of local professional van operators, or drivers.
“We’re always proud to know our agents are giving back to their employees and community,” said Jack Griffin, president and COO of Atlas World Group. “Providing local children with the opportunity to participate in ProCamps is a rewarding and memorable experience.”
Each of the following Atlas agents capitalized on the opportunity to get in the game, express gratitude toward its employees and give back to local military families:
• Alexander’s Mobility Services, a moving, transportation and logistics services company, sponsored 10 children total. Five children from Nashville, Tenn. participated in the Jake Locker Football ProCamp event, while five local children in the Dallas area were able to attend the Citi Jason Witten Football ProCamp event.
• Paxton Van Lines, a relocation, information and logistics management services company, sponsored Charlotte, NC, children to attend the Academy Sports + Outdoors Steve Smith Football ProCamp event.
• Shetler Moving & Storage, Inc., a local, interstate and long distance mover, sponsored five Cincinnati, OH. children to attend the Fifth Third Bank A.J. Green Football ProCamp event.
“ProCamps was developed around the idea of teamwork and teaching the fundamentals of the game to our youth,” said Jake Moylan, camp operations manager for ProCamps Worldwide. “There are a lot of pieces to the puzzle, and Atlas’ agents are helping at various camps nationwide – whether it be by offering storage through Smart Move containers or sponsoring local kids to attend.”
In addition to Atlas agents sponsoring children to attend the events, Atlas and ProCamps partner to use Atlas’ Smart Move containers to store equipment and transport items at various camps across the nation.
