Hypertronics Corporation, a Smiths Interconnect business and worldwide leading provider of high performance interconnect solutions for the most demanding applications, is once again lending its support to a local charitable organization in the effort to ensure that the holiday season is made a bit brighter this year for local families who are in need. Hypertronics has donated $500.00 to the Hudson Food Pantry, marking the third consecutive year that the company has made a donation.
“We want to open our hearts, and do what we can to make a positive difference in the lives of people who are in need right here in our own community,” stated Vadim Radunsky, President of Hypertronics Corporation. “As we enter this holiday season, I am particularly mindful of the impact of this year’s dismal economy on those who rely upon the generosity of local businesses to assist them in addressing some of life’s more daunting challenges.”
The Food Pantry has identified 120 families who need a Thanksgiving dinner. Initially, Hypertronics had mounted an in-house fund-raising and food purchase campaign with a goal of sponsoring 10 of these families. To date, the employees of Hypertronics have surpassed that goal by coming together to raise $1,315.00, a figure that translates to the sponsorship of 26 families. Mr. Radunsky added, “There is a wonderful feeling that comes from helping others who are in need, and I am very touched by the compassion of the Hypertronics employee community.”
