In honor of Martin Luther King Jr. Day, members of the Datonics team participated in a Day of Service to support local community initiatives. Datonics CEO Michael Benedek and his son joined fellow members of the UJA Federation – New York to deliver meals to homebound Holocaust survivors in Far Rockaway, Queens.
The event was well attended despite the bad weather. A coastal storm was coming through the area with high winds, rain and snow. Recipients of the meals were delighted to have visitors on such a poor weather day and were extra appreciative of the company and gesture, which warmed the hearts of volunteers.
The opportunity to participate in a Day of Service is important to Datonics. The company is involved with various charitable causes such as Team Daya, a group building primary schools in some of the most impoverished places in the world. The organization has big plans this year to break ground on a new schools.
