Every year, Buckhorn Inc. employees are among the strongest donors to United Way. This year was no exception, with a 74% participation rate. Employees who gave at the Fair Share rate (one hour’s pay per month) were put into a drawing for one of three prizes – 4 Colts vs. Bengals tickets, a $200 gas card (both of which were donated by Buckhorn suppliers) or an extra paid vacation day. In addition, the shift that had the highest percent of participation will be given a Pizza Party. To make sure that his shift got the pizza party this year (and they have won it for the last few years), Brian Fuller, a supervisor at Buckhorn, upped the ante by telling his shift that he would have his head shaved if they won. They won the pizza party so Brian had his head shaved.
Ken Yake donated his services for the “unveiling.”
Brian was a good sport and said “it is for a really good cause.”
