Omaha-based healthcare company Fusion organized a day of service for its employees, which included a team outing and a donation of $50,000 to MS Forward, an Omaha gym that serves individuals with multiple sclerosis and other neurological challenges.
Fusion employees started their day by volunteering in Elkhorn, Bennington, and Blair, Nebraska, where nearly 200 homes were destroyed by tornadoes in April. The employees helped clean up debris and assisted Omaha Rapid Response with the removal of fencing and large branches at several different homes.
In the afternoon, the company held its annual spring fundraiser event, Drive Fore MS, where employees paid to play a few rounds at Top Golf, and the proceeds were donated to MS Forward. A check for $50,000 was presented to the founder of the gym, Daryl Kucera, along with multiple members who benefit from the services of MS Forward.
“Days like this are what remind us of who we are,” said Corey Watton, President and CEO. “I couldn’t be prouder to be part of the Fusion team. We used the entirety of the day to carry out our core purpose of improving the lives of everyone we touch, and I know our team is eager for our next opportunity to help.”
