MARQUIS & AURBACH TO HOLD NINTH ANNUAL BLOOD DRIVE


Community Urged to Participate as Only Two Percent of Las Vegas Population
Donates Blood in Comparison to Six Percent Across the United States  

     Las Vegas, Nev. – The law firm of Marquis & Aurbach is holding its ninth annual blood drive Friday, October 8 from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. to benefit United Blood Services (UBS) and the needs of people in the community.  UBS alerts there is a constant need for blood in Las Vegas as only two percent of the Las Vegas population donates blood in comparison to six percent across the United States
     In the past, Marquis & Aurbach with 85 employees, far exceeded its goals set for them by UBS  – goals second only to major Las Vegas hotels with 100s of employees and far more than two of the major Las Vegas hospitals.  During last year's blood drive, Marquis & Aurbach collected 53 pints of life saving blood.  The local hospitals go through 200 units per day, and one unit can save up to three lives.  Marquis & Aurbach is committed to giving back to the community, and the annual blood drive is one of the many ways it does so.

NATIONAL HOLIDAY INSPIRES RAISING CANE’S CHICKEN FINGERS’ EMPLOYEES TO LABOR FOR A GOOD CAUSE

Local Restaurant Group Partners with Opportunity Village
to Donate 100 Percent of its Profits on September 6

     Las Vegas, Nev. – Labor Day for Las Vegas residents is a day known for relaxing and the un-official end to summer.  While friends and family gather to celebrate, employees at Raising Cane’s Chick Fingers will be hard at work for a good cause.  On Monday, September 6, Raising Cane’s Chicken Fingers will donate 100 percent of its profits from all five locations to Opportunity Village, Las Vegas’ favorite not-for profit organization.
     “Labor Day is about taking the time to celebrate,” said Justin Micatrotto, partner and vice president of marketing for the Micatrotto Restaurant Group, a Raising Cane's franchise.  “Raising Cane’s Chicken Fingers is an organization that is dedicated to putting people to work.  During these difficult economic times, many people are out of a job.  Our goal is to employ the best people and help out the Las Vegas community any way we can.”
     The decision to donate all of the profits on September 6 to Opportunity Village was because there is a tremendous amount of synergy between both organizations.  Both Raising Cane’s Chicken Fingers and Opportunity Village seek to help out the Southern Nevada community.  Opportunity Village serves people with intellectual disabilities and provides them with vocational training, employment and social recreation services that make their lives more productive and interesting.  Additionally, Raising Canes Chick Fingers employs some members from the Opportunity Village team. 
     “Opportunity Village is an inspiration to all of Southern Nevada,” said Micatrotto.  “They are mostly self-funded; and as a business, we admire them for this fact.  Opportunity Village is an extraordinary place; they are able to assist people with special needs throughout the valley.  We understand the time-consuming efforts of taking care of a special needs person.”
