The employees of Rinnai America have selected the Georgia Chapter of The ALS Association for one of the company’s 2016 charity sponsorships. For decades, Rinnai America headquarters in Peachtree City, GA, has hosted events to raise funds and awareness for a local charity.

The company’s recent employee bake sale and Easter basket auction events this spring raised a total of $1,491 for the association leading the fight to treat and cure ALS through global research and national advocacy.

“All of us in the Peachtree City office have been moved by what the Georgia ALS Chapter does for our community members living with this disease. We are honored to care for these individuals and to support them in their fight against ALS,” said Takashi Sonoda, president of Rinnai America Corporation.

The ALS Association’s Georgia Chapter helps local individuals living with ALS and their families by connecting them to care programs, support groups, clinics, and other area resources.
