Pinnacle Security Securing Hope Initiative Furthers Mission in Local Community

Company Sends Volunteer Team to the Food & Care Coalition

OREM, UT-(Marketwire - Jul 6, 2011) - Pinnacle Security, a leader in the residential security industry, announced the successful completion of another service project from its Securing Hope philanthropic initiative that identifies and supports volunteerism opportunities for its employees across the country and around the world. Pinnacle provided a staff of volunteers from its corporate offices, who volunteered their time to serve lunch to community members in need in the company’s home community.

“The mission of the Securing Hope initiative is parallel to our company mission to provide security and peace of mind for our customers,” said Stuart Dean, Vice President of Corporate Communications. “It’s a natural extension of what we do at Pinnacle Security, helping our customers protect the things that matter most.”
Pinnacle’s volunteer staff prepared and served lunch at the Food & Care Coalition, a local organization dedicated to assisting those in need through the provision of meals, clothing, financial and health services among others. Pinnacle participated in a brief training session and then prepared and served the meal to the patrons of the Food & Care Coalition.

“At Food & Care Coalition, our mission to alleviate hunger and diminish poverty depends upon the commitment and charitable acts of individuals and organizations, like that received from Pinnacle Security,” said Brent Crane, Executive Director of Food & Care Coalition, LLC. “Pinnacle’s volunteers didn’t just provide a meal; they brought a measure of charity and a message of hope for each patron.”

“There are so many individuals and families that just need a little help right now, it was wonderful to spend the day serving them,” said Scott Johnson, Facilities Manager, Pinnacle Security. “This was a great opportunity to work in our own community and offer a little bit of help to those in need.”

Pinnacle’s Securing Hope initiative has been the vehicle for projects including sponsorship for Sustain Haiti, a local NGO dedicated to the rebuild efforts in Port-au-Prince and surrounding areas, building homes and installing electricity in homes in Honduras, working with clean-up crews following the tornadoes in St. Louis and many other similar projects in the communities where Pinnacle operates.
