PBCC Wizards Support United Way

	Pitney Bowes Credit Corp annual employee campaign is so big that it takes co-wizards to pull it off! Matt Kissner and Murray Martin fulfilled the role during employee rallies in Shelton  that featured a parody of the "Wizard of Ox" complete with their own yellow brick road.
Unlike the movie, the PBCC version didn't feature any evil witches. Instead,  Denise "Glinda" Rawles served as the MC for a heartwarming story of a company that is devoted to the communities where they are located.
There was something for everyone during the course of the rally.
Brett "Tinman" Thompson got a heart.	Rich "Cowardly Lion" Palladino got courage	Arlene "Scarecrow" Bradley received wisdom
	For employees, there were raffles with plenty of great prizes as Dorothy and the Tinman picked winners with the assistance of "munchkin" Jacob Boker. Nicole Hardison pictured at the top of the page also served as a "munchkin".
	And finally there were thanks for campaign co-chairs Kari Schirmer and Brett Thompson from PBCC President Matt Kissner who also thanked all the other members of the committee for a memorable event and the employees of PBCC for their creativity and generosity.

During the course of their skit, the cast highlighted all of the good work being done by Pitney Bowes employees and told how their donations help build better communities. They also described the charities supported in the campaign including Valley United Way.

As always, our hats are off to Pitney Bowes Credit Corp for being a Pacesetter in many ways! (Click on each picture to see a larger image.)
