(Beaumont, TX) – (Wednesday, October 25, 2023) – Innovative leaders in engineering, procurement, and construction, Burrow Global, LLC organized a heartfelt event, rallying hundreds of employees in a grassroots movement to champion breast and ovarian cancer awareness. Management encouraged team members across all locations to dress in pink attire and wear pink ribbons to stand in solidarity with Gift of Life’s lifesaving initiatives.
Burrow Global, LLC CEO and Chairman Mike Burrow, P.E. and Gift of Life Founder & Chair Regina Rogers joined nearly 50 staff members under an impressive pink balloon arch in the lobby of Beaumont’s Edison Plaza to celebrate the meaningful occasion.
“One of our core values is work driven by human dignity,” Burrow stated. “This perfectly aligns with the mission of Gift of Life, an organization that works hard to restore the well-being of Southeast Texans who lack health insurance and cannot pay for the preventative medical care they need. It is important that our company unites with Gift of Life and the thousands of clients it serves.”
Staff were encouraged to participate in Gift of Life’s most recent fundraiser – the Julie Richardson Procter 5K Ribbon Run Monster Dash, and Burrow Global, in addition to its sponsorship, pledged that it would cover employee entry fees, as well as donate $100 per participant.
Rogers expressed gratitude for Burrow Global’s extraordinary commitment to the cause, as well Mike Burrow’s personal and professional efforts that increase the program’s impact.
“Mike has been an exceptionally generous sponsor of Gift of Life activities both personally with his late wife Barbara and through Burrow Global’s longtime endorsement of our endeavors,” she shared. “Witnessing so many of you here wearing pink in honor of those affected by this disease has deeply touched my heart. Your involvement not only heightens understanding about breast cancer but also ovarian cancer, a deadly and silent disease that often is diagnosed at a terminal stage.”
Mark Vise, Chief Operating Officer and CFO at Burrow Global, LLC, gathered with employees at the Deer Park location and emphasized the importance of sustaining local charitable causes.
“There are a lot of great cancer charities, but we have one of the best, Gift of Life, in our own backyard!” he said.
