American Solutions for Business recently held a 5K Run/Walk in conjunction with the Glenwood, Minnesota-based distributor’s national sales conference to benefit the United Way of Fort Worth, site of its sales conference.

Over 170 individuals donated and 125 participated in walking or running the race on February 2. In addition, 13 suppliers stepped up as event sponsors with product and monetary contributions. These suppliers include Ennis, Spector & Co., Logo Mats, KTI Promo, Bagworld, BEL Promo, SanMar, Dubow Textile, Showdown Displays, Alexa Springs, Raining Rose, Terry Town and Outdoor Cap. The event resulted in $5,100 donated to United Way. Participants received a bag full of active-inspired promotional products and branded apparel.

“We’re proud to announce that not only did we have even more participants than last year, we greatly increased our donation to the United Way of Fort Worth,” says Dana Zezzo, ASB’s vice president of marketing, vendor relations and events. “We will continue to look for ways to give back a practice that is so engrained in the ASB culture.”
