Biomet Donates To Cardinal Services

Funding cuts, no cost of living increases and growth in demand have combined to place Cardinal Services in the position of needing to raise $500,000 locally – every year – simply to maintain current services, according to Michelle Boxell, community relations manager. The organization took a big step toward that half-million dollar goal this week when Biomet donated $50,000 to the local non-profit. According to Cardinal CEO Jane Wear, the donation will go into Cardinal’s general operating fund where it will help cover the shortfall in programs like community living, which allows people with developmental disabilities to live in apartments and non-group home settings. Pictured (L to R) are: Biomet Vice President and Division General Counsel RJ Hall; Cardinal Services Director of Development Vickie Lootens; Wear; and Danielle Rich, Biomet.
