During/after the 2013 September Flood, CAP awarded my family a substantial grant for both the flood and for Christmas, that same year. It made an absurdly huge and positive difference to my family as we navigated the uncertainty; knowing that people, strangers really, cared. I am still thankful for the support, compassion, and generosity that CAP displayed during our difficult time.
What made it truly amazing to me is that I had just started at Intrado that July and was only an employee for ~2.5 months when this happened. That didn’t seem to matter one bit. I felt like I was a member of the Intrado Family, no matter what, and that People were Caring About me.
