July Recap: Swimming Through The Summer
Can you believe how quickly this summer is flying by? We stayed busy this July and had some great highlights – like that time we collected school supplies for kids in need, or that time our CFO was named one of the best in Austin. Here’s what we were up to in July:
Back-To-School Donations
In July we partnered with LifeWorks Austin for their Back to School Donation Drive to help families get ready for the new school year. We had a blast collecting school supplies for kiddos in need. See some photos from the donation drive on our Facebook page.
Carl’s Epic Motorcycle Ride
As we mentioned last month, our own Carl Davies is riding around the country to raise money for LifeWorks Austin and Max’s Ride for ALS, while also attempting to break a Guinness World Record! We got an update on where he has been so far – and as of August, he’s made it home safely! Read up on his adventure and make a donation at www.maxals.org.
Joe Ross in the Huffington Post
Joe Ross shared two new articles in his Huffington Post column – “Where Small Business Security Sands Today – A 2014 Survey,” and “What’s Stopping Media from Posting PII? Not Much.” Catch up on the column for more industry related stories.
CSID’s Amanda Nevins is Austin’s Best CFO
At the end of the month we were honored to hear that our own Amanda Nevins has been named Austin Business Journal’s 2014 Best CFO in the “Medium Private Company” category. She was recognized for her technical vision and extensive professional experience that has helped CSID achieve several solid years of growth. Go Amanda! We’re so proud! You can read more about Amanda in her ABJ profile.
