It appears that Verizon Wireless (VZW) is feeling pretty good about its position in the mobile market these days.  Since the beginning of this year, I have seen protracted evidence that VZW is tightening its purse strings on providing competitive pricing to enterprise customers.

Our first community service project of 2013 was conducted on Wednesday, March 27th to benefit a most worthwhile Atlanta organization - Buckhead Christian Ministry (BCM).

The "A Team" spent the day assisting at BCM's Food Pantry and THRIFTique. Staff members volunteered half their their time at the thrift store sorting donations, restocking merchandise and greeting customers.  The remainder of the day was spent at the agency's food pantry packing bags of food for families, restocking shelves and organizing food donations.

BCM serves a 15-zip code target area within Metro Atlanta and offers a full spectrum of programs to address the unique needs of Atlanta's working poor. We strongly encourage all of our supporters to get involved with BCM by volunteering or making a generous donation.
